| Abstract: | Regeneration of the sensor chip surface is difficult in many surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor assays. Improper regeneration will reduce life span of the sensor chip and decrease the quality of the data. Considering the advantages of reducing the regeneration frequency, a theoretically feasible continuous SPR biosensor immunoassay for sulfamethazine (SMT) was developed. In the continuous inhibitive immunoassay, the sensor chip surface is regenerated only once after a definite number of tests instead of every test. The SMT-bovine serum albumin (BSA) conjugate was covalently immobilized to a carboxymethyldextran modified gold film. The immobilization conditions of the antigen were studied and the working dilution of the antibody was optimized. The antibody was mixed with SMT of different concentrations prepared with PBS buffer to construct the calibration curve. The limit of detection was 0.5 ng mL?1. The continuous SPR biosensor assay was proved to be simpler and more practical than a normal one. |
