Fluorescence energy transfer immunoassay of digoxin in serum.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have evaluated the reliability of the new fluorescence energy transfer immunoassay (FETI) for determining concentrations of digoxin in serum. The method demonstrated good stability of the standard curve and satisfactory precision in both within-and between-run assay. We have also found a significant correlation between FETI and two RIA methods (r=0.97). Furthermore, the association between results by FETI and by the EMIT method (a conventional enzyme immunoassay) was a linear one. Finally, the assay encountered no significant interference from endogenous substances (hemoglobin, bilirubin , and triglycerides).

Effect of protein concentration on the determination of digoxin in serum by fluorescence polarization immunoassay.
Determination of digoxin by fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) with the Abbott "TDx" is significantly influenced by the concentration of total serum protein. Each 10 g/L increase in serum protein results in an 8% decrease in measured digoxin. Studies with [3H]digoxin confirmed that digoxin binds to the protein pellet during the trichloroacetic acid precipitation step before the immuno...
متن کاملDigoxin-like immunoreactivity eliminated from serum by centrifugal ultrafiltration before fluorescence polarization immunoassay of digoxin.
Digoxin determined in the Abbott "TDx" by fluorescence polarization immunoassay by the manufacturer's recommended method involving precipitation of protein with 5-sulfosalicylic acid (SSA) is subject to interference from endogenous compounds having digoxin-like immunoreactivity. Guided by the work of Graves et al. (Clin Chem 1986;32:1506-9), we eliminated interference caused by digoxin-like imm...
متن کاملEffect of Indian Ayurvedic medicine Ashwagandha on measurement of serum digoxin and 11 commonly monitored drugs using immunoassays: study of protein binding and interaction with Digibind.
CONTEXT Ashwagandha, a popular Ayurvedic medicine, is now available in the United States. Alkaloids found in this herb have structural similarity with digoxin. OBJECTIVE To study potential interference of Ashwagandha with serum digoxin measurement by immunoassays. Potential interference was also investigated with immunoassays for 11 other commonly monitored drugs. In addition, interaction of ...
متن کاملEffect of Asian and Siberian ginseng on serum digoxin measurement by five digoxin immunoassays. Significant variation in digoxin-like immunoreactivity among commercial ginsengs.
Asian and Siberian ginsengs contain glycosides with structural similarities to digoxin. We studied potential interference of ginseng in 5 digoxin immunoassays in 3 Asian (2 liquid extracts, 1 capsule) and 3 Siberian ginseng preparations (1 liquid extract, 2 capsules). With the fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA), we observed apparent digoxin activity in 1 Asian liquid preparation and i...
متن کاملPositive and negative interference of the Chinese medicine Chan Su in serum digoxin measurement. Elimination of interference by using a monoclonal chemiluminescent digoxin assay or monitoring free digoxin concentration.
An over-the-counter Chinese medicine, Chan Su, is used as a cardiotonic agent. We demonstrated significant digoxin-like immunoreactivity in various organic and aqueous extracts of Chan Su. For example, when a 20-microL aliquot of an aqueous extract of Chan Su powder (1 mg/mL) was added to a 2-mL aliquot of a drug-free serum, the observed digoxin-like immunoreactivity was 2.76 ng/mL (3.53 nmol/L...
