Capsaicinoids (CPCs) is a special ingredient with pungent smell in condiments, which can also be used as an exogenetic marker for kitchen waste oil. Development of immunoassay for CPCs remains a challenging due to relatively difficult preparation of the broad-spectrum antibody (Ab). In this work, a broad-spectrum polyclonal antibody (pAb) which can simultaneously recognize capsaicin (CPC), dihydrocapsaicin (DCPC), nordihydrocapsaicin (NDCPC), and N-vanillylnonanamide (N-V) is produced, and a non-enzyme immunoassay (NISA) based on this Ab, dendritic mesoporous silica nanomaterials (DMSNs), polydopamine (PDA), and high catalytic efficiency of Pt nanoparticles to prepare signal probe (DMSNs@PDA@Pt) is established. Here, the limit of detection (LOD) of NISA for CPC is as low as 0.04 μg L-1. It is worth mentioning that the LOD of the proposed NISA is at least 23 times lower than that of traditional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Moreover, the proposed NISA is applied to detect CPCs in edible oil samples, the result has good consistency with that of ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). The proposed NISA based on DMSN@PDA@Pt and broad-spectrum Ab is an ideal tool for highly effective screening CPCs for kitchen waste oil abuse surveillance.
