A solid-phase dot assay using silica/gold nanoshells
We report on the first application of silicagold nanoshells to a solid-phase dot immunoassay. The assay principle is based on staining of a drop (1 ll) analyte on a nitrocellulose membrane strip by using silica/gold nanoshells conjugated with biospecific probing molecules. Experimental example is human IgG (hIgG, target molecules) and protein A (probing molecules). For usual 15-nm colloidal gol...
متن کاملDot enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (dot-ELISA) for schistosomiasis diagnosis using dacron as solid-phase.
Dacron and nitrocellulose were evaluated as matrices for the dot enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (dot-ELISA) for schistosomiasis and compared to indirect immunofluorescence (IMF). Titration of sera from 18 schistosomiasis patients against soluble worm antigen preparation (SWAP) was carried out and sera from healthy individuals from non-endemic areas were used as controls. The IMF was less sen...
متن کاملA Solid-Phase Enzyme-Linked Assay for Vitamin B12
A new solid-phase enzyme-linked competitive binding assay for vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) is described. The assay is based on the competition between analyte B12 molecules and a glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase-vitamin B12 conjugate for a limited number of R-protein binding sites immobilized on sepharose particles. After appropriate incubation and washing steps, the enzyme activity bound to t...
متن کاملStandardisation of a two-site PTH immunoradiometric assay using various solid phase formats
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Estimation of parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels is important in the management of metabolic bone disorders. Here we describe a simple, sensitive and specific second generation immunoradiometric assay (IRMA) to detect intact PTH levels using different solid phase matrices. Different methods for immobilization of antibodies have also been evaluated. METHODS Experiments we...
متن کاملA whole blood immunoassay using gold nanoshells.
A rapid immunoassay capable of detecting analyte within complex biological media without any sample preparation is described. This was accomplished using gold nanoshells, layered dielectric-metal nanoparticles whose optical resonance is a function of the relative size of its constituent layers. Aggregation of antibody/nanoshell conjugates with extinction spectra in the near-infrared was monitor...
