Detecting/analyzing polyphenols in milk using ELISA?

Featured Replies

Does anyone know whether is would be possible to use an ELISA test to detect the presence of certain polyphenols (such as catechins, epicatechins, etc) in milk and serum samples? I'm not sure whether antibodies against them are commercially available.

 

If it is possible, if anyone knows any articles regarding it, please tell me.

In general small metabolites are not very good in causing immune responses. Thus, normally you won't have good antibodies available. For these kind of analyses one would use something like GC or LC-MS.
