Anti-t. gondii igg antibody measurement

VIDAS Method for the Measurement Anti-T. gondii IgG antibody

Principle:

The assay principle a two-step enzyme immune assay sandwich methods with a final fluorescent detection (ELFA). The solid phase Receptacle (SPR) has been used as the solid phase also as pipetting device for the assay. Reagent for the assay have been ready-to-used and pre-dispensed in the sealed reagent strips. The assay steps have been performed automatically by the instrument. The reaction medium is cycled in and out of the SPR several times. After a sample dilution step, the sample is cycled in and out the SPR. Anti-T. gondii IgG antibodies present in the spacemen will bind to the T. gondii antigen coating the anterior of the SPR. Unbound component are eliminated during the washing steps. Mouse monoclonal anti-human IgG conjugate with alkaline phosphatase is cycled through the SPR and will attach to any human IgG bound the SPR wall. During the final detection step, the substrate (4-Methyl-umbelliferyl phosphate) is cycled and out of the SPR. The conjugate enzyme catalyse the (4- Methyl-umbellefrone) the fluorescent of which is measured at 450 nm. The intensity of the fluorescence of which is proportional to the concentration of antibodies present in the sample. At the end of the assay, result are automatically calculated by the instrument in relation to the calibration curve stored in memory, and then printed out[237] .

The solid phase receptacle (SPR)

The interior of the SPR is coated during production With membrane and cytoplasmic toxoplasma antigen(RH sabin strain). Each SPR is identified by TXG code.

The strip

The strip consists of 10 wells covered with a labeled, foil seal. The label comprises a bar code which mainly indicates the assay code, Kit lot number and expiration date. The foil of the first well is perforated to facilitate the introduction of sample. The last well of each strip is acuvette in which the flourimetric reading is performed. The wells in the center section of the strip contain the various reagents required for the assay.

Procedure

  1. The required reagents Were removed from The refrigerator and allowed to come to room temperature for at least 30 minutes .
  2. Used one “ TXG” strip and one “ TXG” SPR for each sample, control or calibrator to be tested.
  3. The test is identified by the “ TXG” code on the instrument. The calibrator must be identified by “ S1” and tested in duplicate. If the positive control is to be tested it should be identified by “ C1”. If the negative control need to be tested, it should be identified by C2.
  4. Mix the calibrator, control and samples using a vortex-type mixer (for serum or plasma separated from the pellet.
  5. For this test, the calibrator, control, and sample test portion is 100µl.
  6. Insert “ TXG” SPR S and “ TXG” strips into the instrument. Check to make sure the color labels with the assay code and the SPR S and Reagent strips match.
  7. Initiate the assay as directed in the user’s manual. All the assay steps are performed automatically by the instrument.
  8. Re stopper the vials and return them to 2-8 ºC after pipetting.
  9. the assay will be completed within approximately 40 minutes. After the assay is completed, remove the SPRs and strips from the instruments.
  10. Dispose of the used SPRs and strips into an appropriate recipient.

Results and interpretation:

Once the assay is completed, results are analyzed automatically by the computer fluorescence is measured twice in the Reagent Strip’s reading cuvette for each sample tested. The first reading is a background reading of the substrate cuvette before the SPR introduced into the substrate. The second reading is taken after incubating the substrate with the enzyme remaining on the interior of the SPR. The RFV (relative fluorescence value) is calculated by subtracting the background reading from the final result. This calculation appears on the result sheet.

Principle:

The assay principle a two-step enzyme immune assay sandwich methods with a final fluorescent detection (ELFA). The solid phase Receptacle (SPR) has been used as the solid phase as well as pipetting device for the assay. Reagent for the assay have been ready-to-used and pre-dispensed in the sealed reagent strips. The assay steps have been performed automatically by the instrument. The reaction medium is cycled in and out of the SPR several times. After a sample dilution step, the IgM are captured he polyclonal Ab coating the interior of the SPR . Anti-T. gondii IgM are specifically detected by inactivated toxoplasma antigen (RH sabin strain), which is itself revealed by an alkaline phosphatase-labeled murine monoclonal anti body (anti-p30) . During the final detection step, the substrate (4-Methyl-umbelliferyl phosphate) is cycled and out of the SPR. The conjugate enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of this substrate into a fluorescent product (4- Methyl-umbellefrone) the fluorescent of which is measured at 450 nm. The intensity of the fluorescence of which is proportional to the concentration of antibodies present in the sample. At the end of the assay, result are automatically calculated by the instrument in relation to the S1standard stored in memory, and then printed out.
