Food extracts were obtained and added to tubes containing a beads precoated with specific anti-SEB IgG. The samples were incubated for 1 h at room temperature (RT). Samples were removed, beads washed, and the HRPO-IgG conjugate added to the tubes. Following incubation (0.5 h at RT), the conjugate was removed, beads were washed again, and transferred to disposable cuvettes. Twenty microliters of an 18 mM $\\rho$-iodophenol solution were added to the cuvette in a corner opposite to the bead. The luminescent reaction was initiated by the addition of 1 ml of luminol-hydrogen peroxide substrate solution. Light emission was recorded for 60 sec after a 30 sec delay.","The detection limit for the assay varied from 0.02 ng/ml in boiled eggs to 0.10 ng/ml in cheese, cheese food and potato salad. Statistical analyses demonstrated that the CLIA was a precise and accurate technique for the determination of SEB in the foods studied. The CLIA presented here offers the following advantages over other currently available immunoassays: (1) light emitted can be measured in seconds; (2) no radioactive or carcinogenic compounds are used; and (3) no stopping reagents are necessary.","Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T13:24:32Z (GMT).
