Time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay for quantitative determination of thiacloprid in agricultural samples

Abstract

A fast and sensitive indirect competitive time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TRFIA) for thiacloprid is developed. Europium-labeled goat anti-rabbit antibody was used as the tracer. Under optimal conditions, the TRFIA showed a 50% inhibition concentration (IC50) value of 2 μg L−1 with a limit of detection (LOD, IC10) of 1.9 ng L−1. The recoveries from agricultural samples, including water, soil, pear and tomato, were in the range from 83.4% to 121% with a relative standard deviation of 2.40–11.3%. The TRFIA results for real soil samples were confirmed by high performance liquid chromatography with a high correlation coefficient of 0.9854. This analytical method demonstrates good sensitivity and stability, and its potential for practical applications.
