Therefore, we developed immunochromatographic assay for the detection of CTA residues in cucumber and apple juice. The antigen HCTA-EDC-OVA and the goat anti-mouse IgG antibody were added to a nitrocellulose membrane as the test and control lines, respectively. Under optimal conditions, the cut-off limits of the semi-quantitative strip test for CTA were 1£¿ng/mL in 0.01 M PBS (pH 7.4), 4£¿ng/mL in cucumber juice, and 5£¿ng/mL in apple juice, and the results were obtained within 5£¿min. The immunochromatographic assay can be used for the sensitive, rapid, and specific on-site screening of CTA residues in cucumber and apple juice %U https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/09540105.2019.1667309
