摘要
We report a rapid, simple, and sensitive assay that is potentially amenable to high throughput screening for analysis of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) present in aqueous solutions. The assay is based on the change in fluorescence emission intensity of a fluorescently labeled TNT analogue pre-bound to an anti-TNT antibody that occurs upon its competitive displacement by TNT. The assay can be performed in both cuvette- and 96-well plate-based formats. TNT at a level of 0.5 mug L-1 (0.5 ppb) was detected in phosphate buffered saline; detection improved to 0.05 mug L-1 (0.05 ppb) for TNT dissolved in artificial sea-water.
