A miniaturized enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with a reaction volume of 5 μl for human transferrin quantification has successfully been developed using an intelligent multifunctional analytical plate (IMAPlate 5RC96), the first miniature analytical platform capable of manually performing parallel liquid transfer, reaction, and analysis. This is the first article to validate the platform for the ELISA application. The data obtained from the standards in this miniaturized ELISA can well be fitted by a one-site binding reaction mode, the coefficient of variation (CV) of the whole plate for an artificial sample (spiking a known concentration of human transferrin into the assay diluent) is 7.0%, and the mean recovery is between 94 and 114% (n = 96), comparable to the values from conventional ELISA in a 96-well format plate. The IMAPlate 5RC96-based miniaturized ELISA not only can reduce sample and reagent consumption to 5% of the conventional ELISA but also can shorten the reaction time. Combined with the advantages brought by miniaturization, the easy-to-handle, parallel, and simultaneous liquid transfer features of the IMAPlate 5RC96 provide a completely new lab tool for manually performing high-throughput ELISA. Our results demonstrate that the IMAPlate 5RC96 is a convenient, robust, high-throughput lab device feasible for miniaturized ELISA in an ordinary laboratory. 相似文献

Aptamers are nucleic acid bioreceptors that have been used in various applications including medical diagnostics and as therapeutic agents. Identifying the most optimal aptamer for a particular application is very challenging. Here, we for the first time have developed a high-throughput method for accurately quantifying aptamer binding affinity, specificity, and cross-reactivity via the kinetics of aptamer digestion by exonucleases. We demonstrate the utility of this approach by isolating a set of new aptamers for fentanyl and its analogs, and then characterizing the binding properties of 655 aptamer–ligand pairs using our exonuclease digestion assay and validating the results with gold-standard methodologies. These data were used to select optimal aptamers for the development of new sensors that detect fentanyl and its analogs in different analytical contexts. Our approach dramatically accelerates the aptamer characterization process and streamlines sensor development, and if coupled with robotics, could enable high-throughput quantitative analysis of thousands of aptamer–ligand pairs. 相似文献

Host cell proteins (HCPs) must be adequately removed from recombinant therapeutics by downstream processing to ensure patient safety, product quality, and regulatory compliance. HCP process clearance is typically monitored by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using a polyclonal reagent. Recently, mass spectrometry (MS) has been used to identify specific HCP process impurities and monitor their clearance. Despite this capability, ELISA remains the preferred analytical approach due to its simplicity and throughput. There are, however, inherent difficulties reconciling the protein-centric results of MS characterization with ELISA, or providing assurance that ELISA has acceptable coverage against all process-specific HCP impurities that could pose safety or efficacy risks. Here, we describe efficient determination of ELISA reagent coverage by proteomic analysis following affinity purification with a polyclonal anti-HCP reagent (AP-MS). The resulting HCP identifications can be compared with the actual downstream process impurities for a given process to enable a highly focused assessment of ELISA reagent suitability. We illustrate the utility of this approach by performing coverage evaluation of an anti-HCP polyclonal against both an HCP immunogen and the downstream HCP impurities identified in a therapeutic monoclonal antibody after Protein A purification. The overall goal is to strategically implement affinity-based mass spectrometry as part of a holistic framework for evaluating HCP process clearance, ELISA reagent coverage, and process clearance risks. We envision coverage analysis by AP-MS will further enable a framework for HCP impurity analysis driven by characterization of actual product-specific process impurities, complimenting analytical methods centered on consideration of the total host cell proteome. 相似文献

Increasing attention has been paid to developability assessment with the understanding that thorough evaluation of monoclonal antibody lead candidates at an early stage can avoid delays during late-stage development. The concept of developability is based on the knowledge gained from the successful development of approximately 80 marketed antibody and Fc-fusion protein drug products and from the lessons learned from many failed development programs over the last three decades. Here, we reviewed antibody quality attributes that are critical to development and traditional and state-of-the-art analytical methods to monitor those attributes. Based on our collective experiences, a practical workflow is proposed as a best practice for developability assessment including in silico evaluation, extended characterization and forced degradation using appropriate analytical methods that allow characterization with limited material consumption and fast turnaround time. 相似文献

A microarray-based mix-and-measure, nonradioactive multiplex method with real-time detection was used for substrate identification, assay development, assay optimisation, and kinetic characterization of protein kinase A (PKA). The peptide arrays included either up to 140 serine/threonine-containing peptides or a concentration series of a smaller number of peptides. In comparison with existing singleplex assays, data quality was high, variation in assay conditions and reagent consumption were reduced considerably, and assay development could be accelerated because phosphorylation kinetics were monitored simultaneously on 4, 12, or 96 arrays. PKA was shown to phosphorylate many peptides containing known PKA phosphorylation sites as well as some new substrates. The kinetic behavior of the enzyme and the mechanism of inhibition by AMP-PNP, staurosporin, and PKA inhibitor peptide on the peptide microarray correlated well with data from homogeneous assays. Using this multiplex setup, we showed that the kinetic parameters of PKA and the potency of PKA inhibitors can be affected by the sequence of the peptide substrate. The technology enables kinetic monitoring of kinase activity in a multiplex setting such as a cell or tissue lysate. Finally, this high-throughput method allows fast identification of peptide substrates for serine/threonine kinases that are still uncharacterized. 相似文献

The development of biosimilar products is expected to grow rapidly over the next five years as a large number of approved biologics reach patent expiry. The pathway to regulatory approval requires that similarity of the biosimilar to the reference product be demonstrated through physiochemical and structural characterization, as well as within in vivo studies that compare the safety and efficacy profiles of the products. To support nonclinical and clinical studies pharmacokinetic (PK) assays are required to measure the biosimilar and reference products with comparable precision and accuracy. The most optimal approach is to develop a single PK assay, using a single analytical standard, for quantitative measurement of the biosimilar and reference products in serum matrix. Use of a single PK assay for quantification of multiple products requires a scientifically sound testing strategy to evaluate bioanalytical comparability of the test products within the method, and provide a solid data package to support the conclusions. To meet these objectives, a comprehensive approach with scientific rigor was applied to the development and characterization of PK assays that are used in support of biosimilar programs. Herein we describe the bioanalytical strategy and testing paradigm that has been used across several programs to determine bioanalytical comparability of the biosimilar and reference products. Data from one program is presented, with statistical results demonstrating the biosimilar and reference products were bioanalytically equivalent within the method. The cumulative work has established a framework for future biosimilar PK assay development. 相似文献

Multiplexing of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in microarrays promises to increase the efficiency, reduce the costs, and improve the quality of high-throughput assays. However, this technology is still nascent and has not yet achieved the status of "high throughput" or laid claim to handling a large set of receptors. In addition, the technology has been demonstrated only when using fluorescent ligands to detect binding, limiting its application to a subset of GPCRs. To expand the impact of multiplexing on this receptor class, we have developed a radiometric approach to the microarray assay. In these studies, we considered two receptors in the alpha-adrenergic receptor family, alpha2A and alpha2C, and the 125I-labeled agonist clonidine. We demonstrate that microarrays of these receptors can be readily detected (signal/noise ratio approximately 160) using a Typhoon 9210 PhosphorImager. In addition, biochemical characterization shows that ligand-binding profiles and selectivity are preserved with the selective antagonists BRL44408 and ARC239. Importantly, these microarrays use approximately 200- to 400-fold less membrane preparation required by conventional assay methods and allow two or more receptors to be assayed in an area equivalent to a standard well of a microtiter plate. The impact of this approach on screening in drug discovery is discussed. 相似文献

ABSTRACTImmunoglobulin G–like bispecific antibodies with asymmetric architecture are among the most widely used bispecific antibody formats for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. The primary technical challenge for this format is how to achieve correctly paired assembly of four unique polypeptide chains. Advances in protein engineering and process development are being used to overcome these challenges and are driving a corresponding demand for sensitive analytical tools to monitor and control mispaired species. Here, we report a systematic approach for analysis and characterization of mispairing in asymmetric bispecific antibodies. This approach consists of three orthogonal components, the first of which is a liquid chromatography (LC)-mass spectrometry (MS)–based method to measure the mass of intact antibodies. This method is used for fast analysis of mispairing and requires minimal method development, which makes it an ideal choice for early-stage development. The second component is a hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC)–based mispairing method that is suitable for lot release testing. The HIC method is robust and quality control friendly, and offers great linearity, precision, and accuracy. The third component is a two-dimensional LC-MS method for on-line chromatographic peak identification, which not only expedites this task but also reduces the risk of undesirable modifications during conventional fraction collection. These three methods dovetail to form the foundation of a complementary toolbox for analysis and characterization of mispairing in asymmetric bispecific antibodies and provide guidance and support for process development throughout the drug development life cycle. 相似文献

We have obtained a simulation of the final steps of de novo fatty acid biosynthesis in sunflower control line RHA-274. For this simulation, we have used data from the evolution of fatty acids during seed formation and from the biochemical characterization of beta-keto-acyl-ACP synthetase II (FASII), stearoyl-ACP desaturase (SAD) and acyl-ACP thioesterase activities and the program GEPASI (based on the metabolic control-analysis theory). When physiological data from high- and medium-stearic acid mutants seed development were used with this model the predicted changes in SAD and TE were very similar to those actually found in the biochemical characterization of these mutants. However, the model had to be modified when results from high-palmitic mutants, accumulating unusual fatty acids like palmitoleic, asclepic and palmitolinoleic acids, were used. The emerging model, that fits all of our results, predicts the existence of a dynamic channelling between the FASII complex and SAD, that channelling being responsible for the alternative pathway starting with the desaturation of palmitic acid by the stearoyl-ACP desaturase. This channelling is consistent with our previous results. For instance, the determination of SAD activity on sunflower seed crude extracts only rendered oleic acid when the stearic acid used as a substrate was obtained from a KASII assay, but not when the stearic acid came from in vitro synthesis using acyl-ACP synthetase from Escherichia coli. This theoretical approximation will be very useful in predicting the evolution of the system when introducing new or modified activities; similar approximations in other oil-seed crops could be of great interest. 相似文献

In order to achieve a rational screening of additives suspected to improve antibody production over basal Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM), we have developed a 96-well plate method for simultaneously testing individual and interactive effects of multiple additives. Cell viabilities were determined directly in each well by a colorimetric assay (MTT assay) and antibody production was measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) performed on well supernatants. Such as supplemented culture medium might considerably reduce production costs since commercial serum- or protein-free media are sold at serum-enriched basal medium costs. The CBM-P22 mouse cell line used in this study was shown to be sensitive to key amino acids, oxalacetic acid, ethanolamine and selenium at low cell density (<1 × 105 cells·ml–1). When these cells were inoculated in 96-well plates their antibody productivity was improved (sevenfold) by adding these additives to the basal DMEM as evidenced by ELISA absorbance readings. This improved productivity, obtained with the supplemented DMEM, named DOWSENs, is comparable to the one obtained with the commercial, but costly, protein-free hybridoma medium (PFHM II), taken here as the positive control. Results were confirmed by growing these cells in different media in standard (25 cm2) T-flask static culture. In addition, specific amino acid consumption, as analysed by HPLC, showed that asparagine and tryptophan when added to DMEM may improve antibody production, even if these amino acids are not limiting or highly consumed in PFHM II. Using this 96-well plate assay allows the assessment of a large number of different assays with a few milligrams of the product(s) tested. This is a rapid technique that gives results for additives that are not easily quantified by analytical techniques or for the study of interactive effects, which is time consuming and labour-intensive when done in individual T-flasks.

Process characterization using QbD approaches has rarely been described for precipitation steps used for impurity removal in biopharmaceutical processes. We propose a two-step approach for process characterization in which the first step focuses on product quality and the second focuses on process performance. This approach provides an efficient, streamlined strategy for the characterization of precipitation steps under the Quality by Design paradigm. This strategy is demonstrated by a case study for the characterization of a precipitation using sodium caprylate to reduce host cell proteins (HCP) during a monoclonal antibody purification process. Process parameters were methodically selected through a risk assessment based on prior development data and scientific knowledge described in the literature. The characterization studies used two multivariate blocks to decouple and distinguish the impact of product quality (e.g., measured HCP of the recovered product from the precipitation) and process performance (e.g., step yield). Robustness of the precipitation step was further demonstrated through linkage studies across the overall purification process. HCP levels could be robustly reduced to ≤100 ppm in the drug substance when the precipitation step operated within an operation space of ≤1% (m/v) sodium caprylate, pH 5.0–6.0, and filter flux ≤300 L/m2-hr for a load HCP concentration up to 19,000 ppm. This two-step approach for characterization of precipitation steps has several advantages, including tailoring of the experimental design and scale-down model to the intended purpose for each step, use of a manageable number of experiments without compromising scientific understanding, and limited time and material consumption. 相似文献

MOTIVATION: The optimization of the primer design is critical for the development of high-throughput SNP genotyping methods. Recently developed statistical models of the SNP-IT primer extension genotyping reaction allow further improvement of primer quality for the assay. RESULTS: Here we describe how the statistical models can be used to improve primer design for the assay. We also show how to optimize clustering of the SNP markers into multiplex panels using statistical model for multiplex SNP-IT. The primer set failure probability calculated by a model is used as a minimization function for both primer selection and primers clustering. Three clustering algorithms for the multiplex genotyping SNP-IT assay are described and their relative performance is evaluated. We also describe the approaches to improve the speed of primer design and clustering calculations when using the statistical models. Our clustering decreases the average failure probability of the marker set by 7-25%. The experimental marker failure rate in the multiplex reaction was reduced dramatically and success rate can be achieved as high as 96%.

The successful development and regulatory approval of originator and biosimilar therapeutic proteins requires a systems approach to upstream and downstream processing as well as product characterization and quality control. Innovation in process design and control, product characterization strategies, and data integration represent an ecosystem whose concerted advancement may reduce time-to-market and further improve comparability and biosimilarity programs. The biopharmaceutical community has made great strides to this end, yet there currently exists no pre-competitive monoclonal antibody (mAb) expression platform for open innovation. Here, we describe the development and initial expression of an intended copy of the NISTmAb using three non-originator murine cell lines. It was found that, without optimization and in culture flasks, all three cell lines produce approximately 100 mg mAb per liter of culture. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, size-exclusion chromatography, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, intact mass spectrometry, and surface plasmon resonance were used to demonstrate that the products of all three cell lines embody quality attributes with a sufficient degree of sameness to the NISTmAb Reference Material 8671 to warrant further bioreactor studies, process improvements and optimization. The implications of the work with regard to pre-competitive innovation to support process design and feedback control, comparability and biosimilarity assessments, and process analytical technologies are discussed. 相似文献

In a double-blind prospective study including 114 healthy young volunteers, the presence in human feces of the yogurt organisms Lactobacillus delbrueckii and Streptococcus thermophilus after repeated yogurt consumption (15 days) was analyzed by culture, specific PCR, and DNA hybridization of total fecal DNA. Detection of yogurt lactic acid bacteria in total fecal DNA by bacterial culture and PCR assay was consistently negative. DNA compatible with yogurt bacteria was found by hybridization experiments in only 10 (10.52%) of 96 individuals after consumption of fresh yogurt and in 2 (2.10%) of 96 individuals after consumption of pasteurized yogurt (P = 0.01). 相似文献

We have obtained a simulation of the final intraplastidial steps of de novo fatty acid biosynthesis in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seeds. For this simulation, we have used data from the fatty acid content of normal and high-saturated seed formation and from the enzymatic characterization of the stearoyl-ACP desaturase (SAD; EC 1.12.99.6), acyl-ACP thioesterase (TE; EC 3.1.2.14) and fatty acid synthase II complex (FAS II), and the program GEPASI (based on the metabolic control analysis theory). When developmental data from high-stearic acid mutant seeds were analysed and compared to those predicted with this model, the changes in SAD and TE actually found in the biochemical characterization of these mutants were very similar to the predictions. However, the model had to be modified when results from high-palmitic mutants, accumulating unusual fatty acids like palmitoleic, asclepic and palmitolinoleic acids, were used. The emerging model, consistent with all of our results, predicts the existence of a dynamic channelling between the FAS II complex and SAD, that channelling being responsible for an alternative pathway starting with the desaturation of palmitoyl-ACP by the SAD. For instance, the determination of SAD activity on crude extracts from sunflower seeds only rendered oleoyl-ACP when stearoyl-ACP used as a substrate was obtained from an FAS II assay but not when in vitro synthesized stearoyl-ACP was provided as a substrate. This theoretical approximation will be very useful in order to predict the evolution of the system when introducing new or modified activities; similar approximations in other oilseed crops could be of great interest. 相似文献

In this article, we describe a new enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) setup to improve the sensitivity of commercial or homemade ELISAs. In the new ELISA setup, an IMAPlate 5RC96, a disposable multi-utility lab device developed by NCL New Concept Lab is used as a self-uptaking microcuvette array to read out the result of the ELISA that is performed in the normal 96-well plate with reduced substrate solution and stop solution. A commercial interleukin-6 (IL-6) ELISA reagent kit was used for the evaluation. Compared with the conventional ELISA setup, the new ELISA setup could easily increase the absorbance values by up to more than 10-fold. Therefore, the sensitivity (change in absorbance/change in concentration [ΔAbs/ΔConc]) is increased accordingly. In addition, methods to extend the upper detection limit of plate readers for the IMAPlate 5RC96 are described. This new ELISA setup may be more notable for the approach employed than for the specific analyte. It should generally be applicable to any conventional ELISA and should serve as an example of a simple solution that increases the detection sensitivity and/or detection range of other assays as well. We expect the approach to have a substantial practical impact on analytical methods and to accelerate discovery, research, and application of analytes at low concentration in life sciences and diagnostics. 相似文献

Large scale cell biological experiments are beginning to be applied as a systems-level approach to decipher mechanisms that govern cellular function in health and disease. The use of automated microscopes combined with digital imaging, machine learning and other analytical tools has enabled high-content screening (HCS) in a variety of experimental systems. Successful HCS screens demand careful attention to assay development, data acquisition methods and available genomic tools. In this minireview, we highlight developments in this field pertaining to yeast cell biology and discuss how we have combined HCS with methods for automated yeast genetics (synthetic genetic array (SGA) analysis) to enable systematic analysis of cell biological phenotypes in a variety of genetic backgrounds. 相似文献
