IMMUNO-CHROMATOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUES BASED SIMPLE, RAPID AND FIELD DETECTION SYSTEM OF RICIN: A SCHEDULE-I CHEMICAL WARFARE AGENT

摘要

The present invention relates to a rapid field detection system of ricin . This system is an immuno - chromatographic technique which utilizes the sandwich immunoassay of ricin with antiricin polyclonal IgG antibodies and monoclonal IgM antibodies . The monoclonal IgM antibodies were obtained from the clone 5F9F7 . The present invention also discloses a kit which utilizes the present method for specific detection of ricin.
