The present application claims priority to Chinese Application No. 201910959017.2 filed on Oct. 10, 2019, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention relates to the technical field of food-safety detection, and in particular, to a method for constructing a chromatography test strip for triazophos based on molecular imprinting and electrospinning.
Triazophos, a toxic, broad-spectrum organophosphorus insecticide, is widely applied to grains, fruits and vegetables. Triazophos tends to remain in the environment due to its outstanding chemical stability and long half-life, causing potential hazard to the environment and human health. China has banned the use of triazophos on vegetables since Dec. 31, 2016. At present, the detection technology for triazophos mainly includes the confirmation technology and the immunoassay technology, but these technologies usually have many disadvantages, such as expensive equipment, long analysis time, and complicated antibody preparation. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to design and synthesize a biomimetic recognition material with strong specificity and excellent stability at low cost, and to establish a sensitive, simple, fast, stable, and inexpensive detection method.
A detection technology based on immunochromatography test strip is a solid-phase labeling immunoassay technology that combines the monoclonal antibody technology, immunolabeling, immunochromatography and the like, and is applied to the qualitative, semi-quantitative and quantitative analysis of an antigen, antibody and hapten. This method has become one of the most common immunoassay methods, as it is convenient, fast, highly-specific, low-cost and simple, and requires no professionals and large and expensive equipment. However, a regular immunochromatography method requires the use of an antibody, resulting in disadvantages such as high cost, high storage conditions, and a need for sacrificing animals. It is expected to overcome these disadvantages by replacing an antibody with a molecularly imprinted polymer. As of now, the only biomimetic immunochromatography technology based on molecular imprinting is the competitive colloidal gold test strip for atrazine constructed by Xie Rong. In this method, the larger size of molecularly imprinted microspheres may cause poor chromatography and thus affect the sensitivity of the experiment. In addition, as there is no antibody corresponding to molecular imprinting, this method adopts two test strips for detection and quality control respectively, resulting in errors and results of lower accuracy.
In order to overcome the above disadvantages, the present invention intends to adopt a new biomimetic immunochromatography mode based on molecular imprinting to directly attach a molecularly imprinted polymer to an NC membrane (nitrocellulose membrane). However, if the molecularly imprinted polymer is directly fixed to the NC membrane by scribing, on the one hand, the molecularly imprinted polymer is easy to be migrated from the membrane during the chromatography process, and on the other hand, the specific binding site on the molecularly imprinted polymer does not tend to be exposed on its surfaces, resulting in a decrease in experimental sensitivity. In order to solve this problem, the inventors intend to prepare a molecularly imprinted nanofiber membrane on an NC membrane by electrospinning. The molecularly imprinted polymer can be tightly fixed, and can also fully expose its binding site to increase the contact area with a target, thereby improving the mass transfer rate.
Electrospinning is a unique fiber manufacturing process that produce fine fibers from a polymer solution or melt with an electrostatic force. The fibers produced by this process have a smaller diameter (from micrometers to nanometers) and a larger surface area than that produced by a traditional spinning process. During the electrospinning process, the polymer solution held at the end of the capillary by a surface tension is subjected to an electric field, and the electric field induces a charge on the liquid surface. When the applied electric field reaches a critical value, the electrostatic repulsion counteracts the surface tension, and a charged jet of the solution is ejected from the tip of Taylor cone. An unstable eruption occurs in the space between the capillary tip and the collector, during which the solvent evaporates and fibers are formed on the collector. The electrospinning fiber, which has a larger specific surface area, a higher porosity, and stronger physical and mechanical properties than a conventional fiber, has been widely used in fields of tissue engineering scaffolds, drug delivery, filtration, healthcare, biotechnology, environmental engineering, defense, and security.
The combination of electrospinning and molecular imprinting enables the specific adsorption of the electrospinning fiber membrane, and also improves the specific surface area of the molecularly imprinted polymer, the adsorption capacity, and the mass transfer rate. In recent years, the preparation of a molecularly imprinted membrane by electrospinning has attracted widespread attention. At present, the method for preparing a molecularly imprinted fiber membrane by electrospinning mainly includes embedding and direct electrospinning. The present invention adopts the embedding method, that is, the molecularly imprinted microspheres are prepared by the precipitation method, and then directly mixed with an electrospinning solution to prepare molecularly imprinted nanofibers. So far, there has been no report about the combination of electrospinning with immunochromatography.
The invention combines electrospinning, molecular imprinting and a detection technology based on immunochromatography test strip. Molecularly imprinted T-line (detection limit) is prepared on an NC membrane by electrospinning, and goat anti-mouse IgG is used as C-line (quality control line). With fluorescence changes occurred when triazophos hapten-murine IgG/fluorescein isothiocyanate conjugate (THBu-IgG-FITC) fluorescent probe directly competes with the target triazophos to bind to the molecularly imprinted binding site, a chromatography-fluorescence detection method based on molecular imprinting and electrospinning for triazophos is established to detect the triazophos residue.
In order to overcome disadvantages of traditional detection methods for triazophos, such as long detection time, expensive equipment, and complicated preparation for specific antibodies, the present invention provides a method for constructing a chromatography test strip for triazophos based on molecular imprinting and electrospinning, and a chromatography assay method for triazophos based on a electrospinning membrane fabrication technology.
To achieve the above objective, the following technical solutions are adopted.
A chromatography assay method for triazophos based on a electrospinning membrane fabrication technology includes the following steps:
1. Synthesis of Hapten
(1) Synthesis of O-ethyl dichlorothiophosphate (TZM-1): 68 g (about 0.4 mol) of thiophosphoryl chloride (PSCl3) is weighed and added to a three-necked flask with a low-temperature thermometer, and the liquid is cooled to −10° C. to −5° C. in an ice-brine bath. 55 g (about 1.2 mol) of absolute ethyl alcohol is added dropwise with vigorous stirring at a rate that is strictly controlled so that the temperature of the reaction solution is always not higher than 0° C. After the dropwise addition is completed, the reaction is continued at 10° C. for 2 h. After the reaction is completed, the reaction solution is washed with (0±5)° C. distilled water (100 ml×2). The oil phase is separated, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, and then distilled under reduced pressure with a water aspirator.

About 16 g (about 0.1 mol) of 1-phenyl-1, 2, 4-triadimenol is added with stirring, and then about 15 ml of TEA and 80 ml of DCM are added. After all solids are dissolved, the resulting solution is cooled to a temperature lower than 20° C. in an ice water bath. Then a trace amount of catalyst is added, and 55 ml of a 2 mol/L NaOH aqueous solution is added dropwise. The reaction continues for 1 h. After the reaction is completed, 50 ml of 5% NaOH iced aqueous solution is added. The resulting solution is shaken, and the water phase is removed. The oil phase is washed with ice water to neutrality, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain a small amount of brown oily substance. Petroleum ether (50 ml×2) is added to the oily substance for extraction, and the extract is concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain a yellow liquid (10.6 g; yield 35%, calculated based on triadimenol).
(3) Synthesis of triazophos hapten: 1.03 g (about 10 mmol) of 4-aminobutyric acid is weighed and dissolved in 10 ml of a NaOH solution (1 mol/L), and the resulting solution is cooled to 0° C. to 10° C. in an ice water bath. 1.51 g (about 5 mmol) of TZM-2 dissolved in 10 ml of dioxane is slowly added with stirring, a trace amount of catalyst is added, and 10 ml of a NaOH aqueous solution (1 mol/L) is added dropwise. The solution is warmed to 15° C. to 25° C. for 4 h of reaction. After the reaction is completed, 50 ml of water is added, and the reaction solution is washed with petroleum ether (40 ml×2), and the petroleum ether phase is removed. pH of the water phase is adjusted to about 3 with 2 mol/L HCL, and ethyl acetate (40 ml×2) is added for extraction. The extract is washed with a small amount of water, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is sealed and stored overnight at 4° C., and a colorless product is precipitated. The precipitate is recrystallized with an ethyl acetate-petroleum ether system, filtered out, and dried to obtain 0.52 g of a white solid (THBu, yield 27%, calculated based on intermediate TZM-2).
2. Preparation of THBu-IgG-FITC fluorescent probe

(6) The synthesized THBu-IgG-FITC fluorescent probe is dialyzed in a 0.01 mol/L PBS (pH=7.4) solution at 4° C. until the dialysate is clear, and stored at 4° C. The fluorescent probe is not suitable for long-term storage, and should be used as soon as possible.
3. Preparation of Molecularly Imprinted Microspheres
29.4 mg (0.1 mmol) of triazolone (template) is weighed and added to a 100 ml round-bottom flask, and 20 ml of acetonitrile (pore-forming agent) is added to dissolve the template. Then 51 μL (0.6 mmol) of MAA (functional monomer) is added, and the mixture is shaken at room temperature for 30 min of prepolymerization. 319.3 μL (1.0 mmol) of TRIM (crosslinking agent) and 30 mg of AIBN (initiator) are then added, and the tube is sealed immediately after 2 min of nitrogen charge. The polymerization reaction is conducted in a 60° C. water bath for 24 h. After the polymerization is completed, the reaction solution is taken out and centrifuged, and the supernatant is removed. Then the resulting precipitate is dispersed in methanol and then centrifuged to remove the unreacted reactant. The obtained polymer is wrapped with a filter paper, and placed in a Soxhlet extractor for extracting the template with a methanol:acetic acid (9:1, v/v) solution.

A secondary antibody (goat anti-mouse IgG) is drawn on an NC membrane at a flow rate of 1 μL/cm by a scriber and dried at 37° C. Then a test strip is assembled as follows: as T-line needs to be spun on an aluminum foil (NC membrane is non-conductive), the NC membrane is cut along a line 5 mm below C-line, and an aluminum foil of 1 mm width is placed between the obtained two NC membranes; the upper and lower NC membranes and the middle aluminum foil are pasted on a black fluorescent board, with T-line and C-line being 5 mm apart from each other; and then an absorbent pad and the sample pad are pasted on the upper and lower sides of the NC membrane respectively, with each pad overlapping with the NC membrane by 1 mm.

The prepared test strip is linearly correlated with the concentration of triazophos in a range of 20 μg/L to 500 μg/L (y=−0.2638x+0.8695, R2=0.954), with a detection limit of 20 μg/L and a detection time only of 30 min. The method is fast, simple, portable, and suitable for on-site rapid detection.
