Abstract

For people who have a food allergy the only way to manage the allergy is to avoid the food allergen. The mackerel is one of the major food allergens, but no immunoassay for the rapid and simple detection of mackerel has been reported. The objectives of this study are to develop and characterize monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) specific to mackerel using thermal stable-soluble proteins (TSSP) as an immunogen and to characterize the MAbs by indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA). The mice immunized with mackerel TSSP and showing high titer were used for cell fusion and cloning. The characterization of MAbs produced from hybridoma cells obtained was confirmed by indirect ELISA and western blot. Four MAbs were confirmed to be specific to mackerel without cross-reaction to other marine products and livestock products in the both methods. The iELISA and western blot based on the MAbs can sensitively detect 1% mackerel protein in other marine products. These results support that immunochemical methods based on the MAb produced could be used as rapid means to detect low levels of mackerel and to identify mackerel adulterated in food.

본 연구에서는 고등어 어육을 고감도로 보다 신속하게 검출하기 위하여 고등어 어육 중 TSSP를 이용해 단클론성 항체를 개발하고 이를 이용하여 간접 효소면역분석법(iELISA)과 western blot의 검출한계를 확인하였다. 먼저 비 열처리와 열처리를 한 고등어 어육 중 존재하는 TSSP를 확인하고, 단백질 추출에 주로 사용되는 버퍼의 종류에 따른 추출법 효율을 확인하기 위하여 전기영동과 단백질 정량을 실시하였다. 그 결과 열처리한 추출물은 비 열처리한 추출물보다 TSSP가 2배 정도 많이 추출되었으며, TSSP로 추측되는 37 kDa 부근에 형성된 밴드의 선명함과 굵기를 육안으로 비교한 결과 carbonate buffer로 추출하였을 때 밴드가 가장 두드러지게 형성되었고, 단백질 정량 결과에서도 carbonate buffer를 이용한 추출물의 단백질 농도가 가장 높은 것을 확인하였다. 이후, 생 고등어 어육을 열처리법으로 추출하여 항원을 준비하고 6주령 BALB/c mouse에 면역한 후 세포융합 및 클로닝을 통해 3A5-1번, 2번, 9번 및 16번 4종의 hybridoma cell을 확보하였다. 이렇게 개발된 항체는 수산물, 축산물, 농산물과의 교차반응성확인을 통하여 고등어 단백질에만 특이성을 가지는 것을 확인하였다. iELISA와 western blot법의 검출한계를 확인한 결과 고등어가 1% 첨가된 수준까지 검출할 수 있으며, 특히 3A5-2와 3A5-9번 항체는 1%에서도 높은 흡광도를 나타내어 민감도가 매우 높은 항체로 확인되었다. 따라서, 개발된 고등어 TSSP 특이항체를 이용한 iELISA법과 western blot법은 가공품에 혼입될 수 있는 식품 알레르겐인 고등어를 보다 신속하고 민감하게 분석할 수 있는 분석 도구로서 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단되며, 개발된 항체는 고감도 바이오센서 개발에 충분히 활용이 가능한 바이오인자로 확인되었다.
