Contamination of drinking water with pharmaceuticals is an emerging problem and a potential health threat. Immunochemical methods based on the binding of the analyte to specific antibodies enable fast and cost-effective on-site analyses. Magnetic bead-based immunoassays allow for implementation into an immunosensor for online testing. These particles are prepared by either coupling the analyte molecule (diclofenac) or the respective antibody (amoxicillin) to the surface. For miniaturization, detection is performed electrochemically on a microfluidic chip. The developed immunosensor will enable detection of pharmaceuticals directly in water supply pipes.

We present the development of magnetic bead-based immunoassays for two potential contaminants of drinking water: the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac and the broad-spectrum antibiotic amoxicillin. For these analytes, different assay formats were developed which can generally be transferred to other analytes. The use of magnetic beads not only enables implementation of the assays into an online system since the beads can be reversibly immobilized by applying a magnetic field. Furthermore, our MBBAs hold several advantages over the conventional ELISAs (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays) for both analytes, such as lower limits of quantification, shorter assay duration and less washing steps required.
Strategies for the setup and miniaturization of an online immunosensor including electrochemical readout on a microfluidic chip will be discussed.
