METHOD OF DIAGNOSIS OF TOXICITY AND EXPOSURE FOR DEOXYNIVALENOL USING HAPTOGLOBIN-SPECIFIC PROTEIN AND THE DIAGNOSTIC KIT

摘要

A method and kit for diagnosis of toxicity and exposure for deoxynivalenol are provided to improve detection convenience and time of deoxynivalenol by detecting increase of a haptoglobin level in blood plasma. A method for diagnosis of toxicity and exposure for deoxynivalenol comprises the steps of: coating an ELISA(enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) plate with an anti-haptoglobin antibody; adding diluted blood plasma into the plate and reacting them for a certain period; reacting the plate with a secondary antibody to determine presence of haptoglobin having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1. A kit for diagnosis of toxicity and exposure for deoxynivalenol comprises an antibody specific to haptoglobin or its immunogenic fragment, fixed in a reaction region of a strip.
