Production of antibodies for saxitoxin analysis and sensitivity analysis of anti-saxitoxin antiserum
Journal of the Korea Academia-Industrial cooperation Society, 2012 해양미세조류 유래 독성물질에 대한 이해와 활용에 있어서 가장 중요하지만 간과되고 있는 부분은 독성물질을 검출할 수 있는 빠르고, 쉽고 경제적인 검출기술을 개발하는 것이다. 이 논문에서 우리는 삭시톡신(STX)에 대한 항체를 생산하였다. 헤모시아닌(mariculture keyhole limpet hemocyanin, mcKLH)과 오브알부민(ovalbumin, OVA)을 운반단백질로 사용하였다. 면역반응을 위해서 mcKLH-STX 결합체를 BALB/c 쥐에 복강주사하였다. 채혈 후 항-STX 항혈청을 분리하였다.

Ecophysiological perspectives of blue-green algal blooms [PDF]
, 2001 Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) have had a profound and unparalled impact on the aquatic environment because of the phenomenon of bloom formation. In many countries, water management is threatened with extensive and persistent noxious blooms of blue ...
