Enzyme labels and substrates

A CL ISH assay for the detection of human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA was developed, in which the hybridization reaction was performed using either digoxigenin-, biotin-, or fluorescein-labeled probes [64], The hybrids were visualized using AP as the enzyme label and a highly sensitive 1,2-dioxetane phosphate as chemiluminescent substrate. This assay was applied to biopsy specimens from different pathologies associated with HPV, which had previously proved positive for HPV DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The analytical sensitivity was assessed using samples of HeLa and CaSki cell lines, whose content in HPV DNA is known (10-50 copies of HPV 18 DNA in HeLa cells and 400-600 copies... [Pg.490]

Most electrochemical immunosensors use antibodies or antigens labelled with an enzyme that generates an electroactive product which can be detected at the electrochemical transducer surface. The combination of high enzyme activity and selectivity with the sensitive methods of electrochemical detection provides a basis for the development of immunosensors. Horse radish peroxidase (HRP) and alkaline phosphatase (AP) are popular enzyme labels and can be used with a variety of substrates. [Pg.588]

Capillary Force Valves, Fig. 8 Capillary burst valves are used to control the sequential mixing of reagents in a Lab-on-a-CD-type device. The solutions of enzyme, inhibitor, and substrate were loaded in reservoirs that were connected to channels labeled Rl, R2, and R3, respectively. R4 is a reservoir for waste collection. The rotation of the disk at different speeds controls the opening of the valves and the sequence of mixing the enzyme with the inhibitor, followed by mixing with the substrate and detection [3]... [Pg.292]

The electrochemical immunosensor system for Salmonella detection shown in Figure 4.7 is based on a direct sandwich ELISA format with HRP used as the enzyme label and TMB/H2O2 as the substrate/mediator system. TMB (3,3 5,5 -tetramethylbenzidine dihydrochloride) was used here as a mediator and shuttles the electrons between the... [Pg.216]

Herbicidal Inhibition of Enzymes. The Hst of known en2yme inhibitors contains five principal categories group-specific reagents substrate or ground-state analogues, ie, rapidly reversible inhibitors affinity and photo-affinity labels suicide substrate, or inhibitors and transition-state, or reaction-intermediate, analogues, ie, slowly reversible inhibitors (106). [Pg.44]

Chemiluminescence and bioluminescence are also used in immunoassays to detect conventional enzyme labels (eg, alkaline phosphatase, P-galactosidase, glucose oxidase, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, horseradish peroxidase, microperoxidase, xanthine oxidase). The enhanced chemiluminescence assay for horseradish peroxidase (luminol-peroxide-4-iodophenol detection reagent) and various chemiluminescence adamantyl 1,2-dioxetane aryl phosphate substrates, eg, (11) and (15) for alkaline phosphatase labels are in routine use in immunoassay analyzers and in Western blotting kits (261—266). [Pg.275]

Enzyme Immunosensors. Enzyme immunosensors are enzyme immunoassays coupled with electrochemical sensors. These sensors (qv) require multiple steps for analyte determination, and either sandwich assays or competitive binding assays maybe used. Both of these assays use antibodies for the analyte of interest attached to a membrane on the surface of an electrochemical sensor. In the sandwich assay type, the membrane-bound antibody binds the sample antigen, which in turn binds another antibody that is enzyme-labeled. This immunosensor is then placed in a solution containing the substrate for the labeling enzyme and the rate of product formation is measured electrochemically. The rate of the reaction is proportional to the amount of bound enzyme and thus to the amount of the analyte antigen. The sandwich assay can be used only with antigens capable of binding two different antibodies simultaneously (53). [Pg.103]

Sandwich-type sensors are applicable for measuring large antigens that are capable of binding two different antibodies. Such sensors utilize an antibody that binds the analyte-antigen, which then binds an enzyme-labeled second antibody. After removal of the nonspecifically adsorbed label, the probe is placed into the substrate-containing solution, and the extent of the enzymatic reaction is monitored... [Pg.184]
