Hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) assay is a simple method quantifying relative binding activities of glycan-lectin interactions. Currently, interpretation of HAI data remains a manual task depending on visual observation. In this study we developed a digital data reading method for HAI assay by using the area scanning function of a microplate reader. This was based on galectin-3-induced hemagglutination inhibition assay. OD values showed a four-parameter logistic correlation with concentrations of galectin-3 inhibitors (R ≥ 0.97), and IC values were obtained from the curve fitting. The method provides an objective and robust data interpretation for HAI assays conducted with chicken erythrocytes.
血凝抑制(HAI)试验是一种定量测定糖-凝集素相互作用相对结合活性的简单方法。目前,HAI 数据的解释仍然是一项依赖于视觉观察的手动任务。在这项研究中,我们通过使用微孔板读数器的面积扫描功能,开发了一种用于 HAI 试验的数字数据读取方法。这是基于半乳糖凝集素-3 诱导的血凝抑制试验。OD 值与半乳糖凝集素-3 抑制剂的浓度呈四参数逻辑相关(R≥0.97),并通过曲线拟合得到 IC 值。该方法为使用鸡红细胞进行的 HAI 试验提供了客观、稳健的数据解释。
