Abstract

A visualized microarray sensing technique has been developed and applied to the screening of honey samples for residues of banned nitrofuran Antibiotics. Using a multiplexed approach, metabolites of four main nitrofuran Antibiotics can be detected simultaneously. Individual antigens were spotted onto 96-well plates. An indirective competitive assay format, with visualized signal response, was employed. An extraction method, based on derivatization with 2-nitrobenzaldehyde and partition into ethyl acetate, was used for screening. The limits of detection were 0.10, 0.04, 0.04, and 0.10ngg-1 for 3-amino-5-morpholino-2-oxazolidone (AMOZ), 3-amino-2-oxazolidinone (AOZ), semicarbazide (SEM), and 1-aminohydantoin (AHD), respectively. The recovery rate ranged from 78% to 93% for the four targets. In addition, this method was easy to operate with low detection cost and fast speed. This microarray method possesses the potential to be a fit-for-purpose screening technique in the arena of food safety monitoring.
