"Sandwich-type" noncompetitive (immunometric) assays allow for high-sensitivity high-throughput macromolecule sensing and determination but cannot be used on small molecules (haptens). Here, we isolated single-chain Fv fragments from a phage-display library, which bound to complexes of particular haptens (vitamin D and A derivatives) with immobilized beta-cyclodextrin or beta-maltosyl residues, and formed ternary complexes. These scFvs enabled novel "semisandwich-type" immunometric assays of haptens with nanomole-range sensitivities.
"三明治型"非竞争(免疫测定)分析允许对大分子进行高灵敏度高通量的检测和测定,但不能用于小分子(半抗原)。在这里,我们从噬菌体展示文库中分离出单链 Fv 片段,该片段与固定化β-环糊精或β-麦芽糖残基结合的特定半抗原(维生素 D 和 A 衍生物)的复合物结合,并形成三元复合物。这些 scFv 使新型半抗原的“半三明治型”免疫测定分析具有纳摩尔级的灵敏度。
