Lateral flow immunoassay for furazolidone point-of-care testing: Cater to the call of saving time, labor, and cost by coomassie brilliant blue labeling

摘要

Furazolidone (FZD) and its metabolite called 3-amino-2-oxazolidinone (AOZ) would induce carcinogenic and mutagenic effects to human. In this work, to develop a novel, stable, and simple point of care testing (POCT) with a potential to social applied for FZD detection, we utilized the aspect of protein staining of coomassie brilliant blue (CBB) to exploit a new CBB-LFIA strategy free of NPs. Only one mixing step is needed during the probe manufacturing process, which requires just 2 h and is a great time saving strategy compared with other methods (requiring 4?33 h for probe preparation). Besides, the cost of CBB-LFIA is 300 times lesser than other LFIA with respect to obtaining the label. The developed CBB-LFIA was successfully applied to detect AOZ with a detection limit of 2 ng mL-1, without any influence from other potential interfering compounds. The proposed CBB-LFIA exhibited prominent practical application, and possesses considerable utilization potential in the related field.
