Abstract: | A novel flow-through immunosensing system for performing a multianalyte chemiluminescent determination in a single run was designed. A new analytical strategy of substrate zone-resolved technique was proposed. Using carcinoma antigen 125 (CA 125) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) as model analytes, the capture antibodies for CA 125 and CEA were immobilized on an UltraBind aldehyde-activated membrane to act as an immunoreactor, to which the mixture of CA 125, CEA, and their corresponding tracers, horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled anti-CA 125 and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-labeled anti-CEA, was introduced for on-line incubation. The substrates for HRP and ALP were then delivered into the detection cell sequentially to perform substrate zone-resolved immunoassay by a sandwich format. Under optimal conditions, CA 125 and CEA could be assayed in the ranges of 5.0-100 units/mL and 1.0-120 ng/mL, respectively. The whole assay process including incubation, wash, detection, and regeneration could be completed in 35 min. The serum samples from the clinic were assayed with the proposed method, and the results were in acceptable agreement with the reference values. This method and the strategy of substrate zone-resolved technique could be further developed for high-throughput multianalyte immunoassay. |
