An assay was developed for the detection of residues of penicillins and cephalosporins in milk using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor. The assay was based on the inhibition of the binding of digoxigenin-labelled ampicillin (DIG-AMPI) to a soluble penicillin-binding protein 2x derivative (PBP 2x*) of Streptococcus pneumoniae. Samples were incubated with PBP 2x* in a first step, whereby beta-lactams in positive samples would bind to the PBP 2x*. Non-complexed PBP 2x* was then allowed to form a complex with DIG-AMPI in a second incubation step. The formed DIG-AMPI/PBP 2x*-complexes were detected in a SPR-based biospecific interaction assay (BIA) for digoxigenin with an antibody against digoxigenin immobilised on the sensor chip. Although binding of matrix components to the sensor chip (non-specific binding) occurred, benzylpenicillin, ampicillin, amoxicillin, cloxacillin, cephalexin and cefoperazone could be detected in defatted bulk raw milk samples at concentrations corresponding to the maximum residue limits (MRL) set by the European Union. The influence of matrix components on the performance of the assay was examined in more detail by analysing individual raw milk samples from 19 cows. Compared to bulk raw milk samples, individual samples showed a higher level and variation of matrix interferences. Non-specific binding could be reduced to a lower and more constant level by a heat-treatment step, a centrifugation step and the addition of carboxymethylated dextran to the samples. With this sample preparation, benzylpenicillin could be detected at MRL (4 mug kg(-1)) in individual raw milk samples. Thus, the assay could be the basis for a screening test for routine use.
