Intended Use
To be used in combination with the Nitrofurans Accessory kit, for the quantitative in vitro determination of Furaltadone (i.e. AMOZ) in a test sample i.e. tissue (prawn, beef, pork and poultry).
General background
Nitrofurans have been widely used in veterinary practice as antibacterial agents in the treatment of pigs, poultry, fish and shrimp. Bans on nitrofurans were introduced within the EU primarily because of concerns about their carcinogenicity and mutagenicity. Several other non-European countries have also banned all use of nitrofurans in food producing animals.
Tissue residue of Furaltadone is mainly protein bound, therefore the main metabolite 3amino-5-morpholinomethyl-2-oxazolidinone (AMOZ) is proposed as the marker residue.
This ELISA provides a fast, reliable, analytical method to detect the presence of AMOZ. If performing the test using duplicate wells, this kit has the ability to analyse 40 samples per plate.
Principle
Each micro titre plate is supplied precoated with an AMOZ antibody. AMOZ (antigen) in the Nitrofuran standard (multi antigen) and, if present, in the sample competes with the horseradish peroxidase labelled AMOZ in the Nitrofuran multi conjugate for a limited number of antibody sites on the micro titre plate. After incubation at room temperature, to allow a competition reaction to take place, the micro titre plate is washed to remove excess reagents.
The enzyme substrate is added. After an incubation period to allow maximum colour development, the colour reaction is stopped by the addition of acid. This produces a colour change from blue to yellow, and the absorbances are read at 450nm.
A standard curve is then constructed to determine the AMOZ concentration in the sample.
