Abstract Background: Only cobalamin carried by transcobalamin (holo-transcobalamin) is available for cellular uptake and hence is physiologically relevant. However, no reliable or accurate methods for quantifying holo-transcobalamin are available. We report a novel holo-transcobalamin assay based on solid-phase capture of transcobalamin. Methods: A monoclonal antibody specific for human transcobalamin with an affinity constant >1010 L/mol was immobilized on magnetic microspheres to capture and concentrate transcobalamin. The cobalamin bound to transcobalamin was then released and assayed by a competitive binding radioassay. The quantification of holo-transcobalamin was accomplished using calibrators composed of recombinant, human holo-transcobalamin. Results: The assay was specific for holo-transcobalamin and had a detection limit of 5 pmol/L. Within-run and total imprecision (CV) was 5% and 8–9%, respectively. The working range (CV <20%) was 5–370 pmol/L. Dilutions of serum were linear in the assay range. The recovery of recombinant, human holo-transcobalamin added to serum was 93–108%. A 95% reference interval of 24–157 pmol/L was established for holo-transcobalamin in 105 healthy volunteers 20–80 years of age. For 72 of these sera, holo-haptocorrin and total cobalamin were also determined. Whereas holo-haptocorrin correlated well (r2 = 0.87) with total cobalamin, holo-transcobalamin correlated poorly (r2 = 0.23) with total cobalamin or holo-haptocorrin. Conclusions: The solid-phase capture assay provides a simple, reliable method for quantitative determination of holo-transcobalamin in serum.

AbstractThe determination of the content of stable isotopes, 18O and 2H, respectively, in juice water facilitates the distinction between authentic juices and juices made from concentrates by redilution with tap water. At the same time, the detection of C4 cane or corn-derived sugar syrups in fruit juices which are produced from C3 fruit types is thus facilitated by the characteristic differences in 13C/12C, expressed as δ 13C (‰) values due to photosynthetic CO2 assimilation via the C3−, C4−, and crassulacean acid metabolism pathways. In this study, the quantitative determination of water added to an authentic juice, on the basis of δ 18O, and δ 2H values, respectively, was successfully performed. Also, the δ 18O, and δ 2H of juice water and δ 13C of the whole juice in 18 samples were also determined. The results obtained provided us with the possibility of distinguishing between authentic fruit juices and those obtained by redilution of concentrated fruit juices and the detection of C4 type added sugar.

Abstract A simple and rapid indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was developed for the quantitative determination of ochratoxin A in barley after the successful production of a high affinity, specific monoclonal antibody. A rapid sample cleanup was achieved by extracting ochratoxin A from barley with chloroform and partitioning the toxin into bicarbonate buffer; the buffer solution was then added directly to the assay plate and ochratoxin A content was assessed. Recoveries were greater than 85% and detection limits were 5 μg ochratoxin A/ kg barley.

In this study, an ultrasensitive monoclonal antibody (mAb) was prepared and used to develop an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ic-ELISA) and a colloidal gold-based immunochromatographic strip (CG-ICS) for the analysis of fentanyl in urine and serum.
