Abstract: To determine malachite green (MG) and its major metabolite, leucomalachite green (LMG) residual levels in tilapia fish, chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay (CLEIA) was developed based on a single-chain variable fragment (scFv)-alkaline phosphatase (AP) fusion protein. At first, VH and VL gene sequences were cloned from hybridoma cell lines secreting monoclonal antibody against LMG, and then thoroughly by database-assisted sequence analysis. Finally, the productive VH and VL were assembled to an intact scFv sequence and engineered to produce scFv-AP fusion protein. The fusion protein was further identified as a bifunctional reagent for immunoassay, then a sensitive one-step CLEIA against LMG was developed with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) and limit of detection (LOD) of 1.3 and 0.04 ng/mL, respectively. The validation results of this novel competitive CLEIA was in line with those obtained by classical HPLC method for determination of total MG in spiked and field incurred samples.
