Development of Indirect Competitive ELISA and Visualized Multicolor ELISA Based on Gold Nanorods Growth for the Determination of Zearalenone.

ABSTRACT: In this study, a zearalenone (ZEN) hapten was designed and prepared against the mycotoxin ZEN, and the original coating ZEN-ovalbumin (ZEN-OVA) was prepared by conjugation with OVA. Based on the gold nanorods (AuNRs) of uniform size and stable properties synthesized by the seed-mediated method, the indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ic-ELISA) and the AuNRs growth-based multicolor ELISA for detecting ZEN toxin were further established. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the coating amount of ZEN-OVA: 0.025 μg/well, antibody (Ab) dilution factor: 32,000 times, blocking solution: 0.5% skimmed milk powder, enzyme-labeled secondary Ab diluted 10,000 times, and a pH of the PBS buffer at 7.4, the sensitivity (IC50) of the established ic-ELISA for ZEN detection reached
