Synthetic contraceptive levonorgestrel(LNG) and glucocorticoid methylprednisolone(MP) residues are eventually discarded to environmental water system and function as environmental hormones,displaying potential risk to humans and ecosystems, thus there is an urgent need for fast, sensitive and simultaneous detection of these compounds in water samples. In this study, a competitive immunochromatographic assay(ICA) using colloidal gold-labeled polyclonal antibodies as probes for rapid and simultaneous detection of LNG and MP in water samples was developed. The visual detection limits of LNG and MP in water samples were 10 ng/mL. The detection process could be completed within10 min. There was no cross-reactivity of the ICA with other seven compounds. The strips could be stored at 4 ℃ for 10 weeks without signifcant loss of activity. The assay is a suitable tool for rapid and semiquantitative detection of LNG and MP in water samples on site.
