However, the low amounts of the acetylated proteins could hardly be de- tected before enrichment. In this study, for the first time, antibody-immobilized magnetic carbonaceous micro- spheres were developed for selective enrichment of acetylated proteins and peptides. At first, standard proteins composed of acetylated bovine serum albumin, myoglobin, a-casein and ovalbumin were used as model proteins to verify the enrichment efficiency. Then, the synthesized peptide was employed to confirm the selectivity of the method. Besides, the antibody-immobilized magnetic particles were successfully applied to analyze mouse mito- chondrial proteins. After database search, 29 acetylated sites in 26 proteins were identified.展开更多

Anti-C4 antibody was immobilized onto the gold electrodes of a 9 MHz AT-cut piezoelectric crystal. The coated crystal with the physical adsorption method to immobilize antibody showed the better results than the polyethyleneimine adhesion, glutaraldehyde cross-linking method with respect to sensitivity and reproducibility. The antibody-bound crystal with the physical adsorption method was successfully used for the detection of human complement C4 in the concentration range of 0.1—10 μg/mL for 40 min incubation time. The immunosensor system had good selectivity, and other materials in human Serum did not interfere the detection remarkably. The crystal could be regenerated nearly 15 times when the bound materials on the crystal surface were eluted by strong acid and strong alkali solutions and subsequently cleaned in a ultrasonic cleaner.展开更多
