This paper reports the synthesis of five sulfonamide derivatives, the production of broad-specificity polyclonal antibodies for immunoassay of sulfonamides, and the analysis of milk samples by developed assay. The three-step synthesis procedure reported in most of the literature was adopted and modified in this study. In the procedure, the purification of the intermediate was avoided and the time of synthesis was shortened from >20 to 6-9 h with improved yields. This method is generally applicable to the synthesis of haptens containing the common structure of sulfonamides. Three haptens were coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin, and polyclonal antibodies were obtained from rabbits immunized with these conjugates. Using the antibodies obtained, from one of these was developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on the competition between free sulfonamides and the hapten-horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugates. The hapten-HRP conjugate giving the best competitive results and 11 structurally different sulfonamides showed 50% inhibition at concentrations of -1. After removal of the protein with acetone, milk samples were analyzed by ELISA directly; a matrix effect could be avoided when a 1:20 dilution with phosphate-buffered saline was used, and 104-131% recoveries of spiked samples were obtained. The developed immunoassay is suitable to determine sulfisozole, sulfathiazole, sulfameter, sulfamethoxypyridazine, sulfapyridine, and sulfamethizole below the maximum residue limit in milk (100 ng mL-1 of total sulfonamides) rapidly and reliably.
