PG - 1348-53 LID - 10.1016/j.envpol.2011.01.011 [doi] AB - Currently HPLC/MS is the state of the art tool for environmental/drinking water perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) monitoring. PFOS can bind to peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha), which forms heterodimers with retinoid X receptors (RXRs) and binds to PPAR response elements. In this bioassay free PFOS in water samples competes with immobilized PFOS in ELISA plates for a given amount of PPARalpha-RXRalpha. It can be determined indirectly by immobilizing PPARalpha-RXRalpha-PFOS complex to another plate coated with PPARalpha antibody and subsequent measuring the level of PPARalpha-RXRalpha by using biotin-modified PPARalpha-RXRalpha probes-quantum dots-streptavidin detection system. The rapid and high-throughput bioassay demonstrated a detection limit of 2.5 ng L(-1) with linear range between 2.5 ng L(-1) and 75 ng L(-1). Detection results of environmental water samples were highly consistent between the bioassay and HPLC/MS. CI - Copyright (c) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
