Development and validation of streptavidin-biotin-based double antibody sandwich ELISA for ricin diagnosis

CONCLUSION: The developed assay is highly sensitive and specific for detecting ricin and is not cross-reactive with other similar types of toxins. The assay can detect ricin in spiked plasma samples, so it has the potential to be used for the analysis of clinical samples after ricin poisoning.PMID:38574703 | DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2024.111986
