Bacteriosorption reaction on a smooth surface for detecting antibodies and antigens

The solid-phase technique for the detection of antibodies and antigens has been developed and named the bacteriosorption test. The test is based on binding staphylococci containing protein A with the Fc-regions of IgG-antibodies attached to antigens immobilized on polystyrene. The possibilities of this technique have been analyzed with the use of diphtheria toxoid, house-dust allergen and homologous rabbit antisera. In the detection of antibodies the proposed test is not inferior to the passive hemagglutination test, and its sensitivity in the detection of antigens by the sandwich technique reaches 0.05-0.1 micrograms/ml. The specificity of the technique has been experimentally confirmed by the inhibition of the reaction with soluble antigen and staphylococcal protein A. The variability factor of the technique does not exceed 10%.

Immunoenzyme analysis for determining class G and M antibodies to HBsAg

A scheme of the purification of hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) as applied to the enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for the detection of antibodies to HBsAg is described. An indirect EIA technique for the detection of IgG and IgM antibodies to HBsAg has been developed and the diagnostic assay system based on the use of immunoreagents and solid-phase carriers produced in the USSR has been obtained. The sensitivity of the indirect EIA technique in the detection of IgG antibodies to HBsAg exceeds that of double immunodiffusion in gel used for this purpose 2,500- to 5,000-fold. The study has shown the possibility of using the indirect EIA technique for the detection of antibodies to HBsAg, both free and bound in immune complexes, of detecting antibodies to HBsAg in patients with acute and chronic viral hepatitis B, as well as of simultaneous detection of IgG and IgM antibodies to HBsAg without pseudonegative results.     

A methodology for rapid detection of Salmonella typhimurium using label-free electrochemical impedance spectroscopy

A pathogen detection methodology based on Bayesian decision theory has been developed for rapid and reliable detection of Salmonella typhimurium. The methodology exploits principles from statistical signal processing along with impedance spectroscopy in order to analytically determine the existence of pathogens in the target solution. The proposed technique is validated using a cost-effective and portable immunosensor. This device uses label-free, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy for pathogen detection and has been demonstrated to reliably detect pre-infectious levels of pathogen in sample solutions. The detection process does not entail any pathogen enrichment procedures. The results using the proposed technique indicate a detection time of approximately 6min (5min for data acquisition, 1min for analysis) for pathogen concentrations in the order of 500CFU/ml. The detection methodology presented here has demonstrated high accuracy and can be generalized for the detection of other pathogens with healthcare, food, and environmental implications. Furthermore, the technique has a low computational complexity and uses a minimal data-set (only 30 data-samples) for data analysis. Hence, it is ideal for use in hand-held pathogen detectors.     

A protein detection technique by using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) with rolling circle amplification (RCA) and nanogold-modified tags

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) can detect molecules bound to a surface by subtle changes in the SPR angle. By immobilizing probes onto the surface and passing analyte solution through the surface, changes in SPR angle indicate the binding between analyte and probes. Detection of analyte from solution can be achieved easily. By using rolling circle amplification (RCA) and nanogold-modified tags, the signals of analyte binding are greatly amplified, and the sensitivity of this technique is significantly improved. Furthermore, this technique has potentials for ultra-sensitive detection and microarray analysis. In this paper, this detection technique is introduced and shown to have great amplification capability. Using 5 nm nanogold with 30 min of RCA development time, this proposed protein detection technique shows over 60 times amplification of the original signal.     

High-performance liquid chromatography-coordination ion spray-mass spectrometry (HPLC-CIS/MS): a new tool for the analysis of non-polar compound classes in plant extracts using the example of Piper methysticum Forst

An efficient method to characterise complex plant extracts is described using the example of Piper methysticum Forst. (kava; Piperaceae). The method is based on the on-line coupling of high-performance liquid chromatography to a new detection technique: coordination ion spray-mass spectrometry (CIS/MS). CIS/MS is a universal, novel ionisation technique improving selectivity as well as sensitivity. Charged complexes were formed through addition of central complexing ions such as sodium, silver and cobalt. The advantages of CIS/MS detection compared with the electrospray ionisation detection are discussed. The experimental set-up and the application of this simple and robust technique is described to show the its various fields of application in the analysis of plant extracts.

A sensitive immunoblotting technique to identify thyroxin-binding globulin protein heterogeneity after isoelectric focusing

An enzyme-linked immunoblotting technique is described to detect thyroxin-binding globulin (TBG) variation in human plasma samples after isoelectric focusing in thin-layer polyacrylamide gels followed by transfer to a nitrocellulose membrane. The technique is used to demonstrate the polymorphic variation in thyroxin-binding globulin present in populations of African and Mongoloid origin and has enabled the detection of a new TBG variant in Eskimos.

A comparison of immunomagnetic and surface adhesion immunofluorescent techniques for the rapid detection of Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria innocua in meat

an immunomagnetic immunofluorescent method was investigated for the rapid detection of Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria innouca . This technique involved enrichment of the suspect sample at 30°C overnight. Listeria monocytogenes cells were isolated from the enriched sample using immunomagnetic separation and Listeria were subsequently visualized using an immunofluorescent microscopy technique. This technique was used in the detection of Listeria cells from pure culture, inoculated beef mince samples and naturally contaminated retail beef mince samples. A detection level of approximately 1×10³ cfu ml⁻¹ was achieved. When compared with traditional detection methods no false negatives or positives were recorded for L. monocytogenes or L. innocua . The immunomagnetic immunofluorescent technique had a detection level similar to a previously described surface adhesion immunofluorescent technique. Isolation of the Listeria cells by surface adhesion involved dipping a membrane attached to a microscope slide into the enriched sample for 10 min. This was quicker and simpler to perform than the immunomagnetic separation technique which took 2 h to carry out.     

Detection of volatile sulfide-producing bacteria isolated from poultry-processing plants

A technique using filter paper strips impregnated with 5-5'-dithiobis-nitrobenzoic acid was developed to allow the detection of bacteria (isolated from poultry-processing environs) which produced volatile sulfides (H2S, CH3SH, [CH3]2S). The technique is preferred to conventional methods in that it allows the detection of volatile organic sulfides in addition to hydrogen sulfide.

Freeze-drying allows double nonradioactive ISH and antigenic labeling.

Because tissue freeze-drying is an excellent way to preserve antigenic conformation, we have tested the feasibility of this technique to reveal nonradioactive in situ hybridization (ISH) of tissue mRNA. We have compared mRNA detection after different methods of tissue preservation, freeze-drying, cryosectioning, and formaldehyde or methanol fixation. Our results show that nonradioactive ISH is more sensitive for tissues preserved by freeze-drying than for other tissue preparations. We have demonstrated that freeze-drying allows combination of ISH and immunohistochemistry for simultaneous detection of mRNA and antigen because with this technique of tissue preservation ISH does not affect the sensitivity or the amount of the detected antigens. This work underscores the fact that tissue freeze-drying is an easy, convenient, and reliable technique for both ISH and immunohistochemistry and achieves excellent structural conditions for nonradioactive detection.
