Analysis of 17β-Estadiol from Sewage in Coastal Marine Environment by Surface Plasmon Resonance Technique

In this study, surface plasmon resonance(SPR) for monitoring 17β-eatradiol( E2 ) was developed. The small molecule E2 was immobilized on a CM5 sensor chip for an indirect competitive immunoassay to detect F2. The SPR response based on the antigen-antibody reaction was measured by injecting the sample solution into the flow system.The limitation of detection was 0.445 μg/L. The developed SPE-SPR system was applied to analyze the seawater samples. Recovery of E2 was 91.6%-93.1%. Relative standard deviations(RSD) for the E2 assay were between 10.9%-15.1% ( n = 3). The range of determination of E2 samples from the sewage in the coastal marine environment was between ND(lower than detection limit) and ca. 11.78 ng/L.
