To detect two types of β2-agonist residues at the same time, we coupled two haptens of clenbuterol (CLE) and ractopamine (RAC) to the same carrier protein through diazotization to prepare dimeric artificial antigen, and a fluorescent lateral flow immunoassay method based on europium nanoparticles (EuNP-FLFIA) was established by combining polyclonal antibodies with europium nanoparticles to form probes. Under optimized conditions, the EuNP-FLFIA could simultaneously detect eight aniline-type and one phenol-type β2-agonists, and the limits of detection (LOD) were 0.11–0.19 ng/mL and 0.12 ng/mL, respectively. The recovery rate of this method was 84.00–114.00%. This method was verified by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and the test results were consistent (R2 > 0.98). Therefore, the method established in this study could be used as a high-throughput screening for the efficient and sensitive detection of β2-agonists in food.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
