摘要:
Sacs comprising a compound having a hydrophilic peptide radical are prepared and are believed to have improved stability as a result of hydrogen bonding. The sacs, including a detectable marker and derivatized with a ligand may be used as a tracer in an assay.At least a portion of the sac is formed from a compound having the following structural formula:X-Y-Z,whereinX is a hydrophobic radical;Y is a hydrophilic peptide; andZ is a radical which includes a non-hydrolyzable polar group.

A sac, in particular a vesicle, including as a detectable marker an absorbing dye having an extinction coefficient of at least 100,000 and a solubility in water of at least 0.1M; in particular, sulforhodamine B or salt thereof. The sacs have improved stability to leakage and are useful in a variety of assays; in particular, when sensitized with a ligand.

摘要:
Novel non-competitive assay techniques have been developed which not only improve sensitivity, but also are convenient and less susceptible to interfering factors. They are compatible with existing instruments and can be run in one or more test tubes. The analyte is reacted with labeled specific binder, after which the mixture is reacted with (1) an insoluble material attached to an analyte derivative and (2) a solid phase carrying a binder. The solid phase is then separated, and the label attached to the solid phase is measured. Variations of the procedure include the use of a reversible bridge for attaching the insoluble material to the analyte mimic and the conduct of the assay in various porous media, such as paper, chromatographic and electrophoretic media, and dipsticks.
摘要:
This invention relates to methods that have been found useful in reducing non-specific binding in immunochemical assays, via methods that can be implemented much faster than those used by Ishikawa. The techniques include the use of a lipophilic bridge, such as a liposome, or the elution of the antigen-antibody complex from the solid phase by the use of an anti-idiotypic antibody or an antibody, or the use of a heterologous reversible bridge.
摘要:
A method for processing multi-phasic dispersions is provided. The method comprises providing a multi-phasic dispersion, the dispersion including dispersed and continuous phases, the dispersion comprising solid microparticles, providing a non-solvent, combining the multi-phasic dispersion and the non-solvent, and selectively effecting migration of the dispersed phase into or through the non-solvent such that the microparticles are separated from the dispersion.
摘要:
Vesicular luminescent conjugates comprising liposomes coupled to molecules with biological activity, such as antigens, antibodies, and nucleic acids, for use in luminescent assays, are described herein. These conjugates encapsulate hydrophilic polysubstituted aryl acridinium esters and are useful as chemiluminescent tracers in immunoassays and other binding assays.
摘要:
A method for the detection of an analyte in a fluid sample using liposomes encapsulating acridinium esters (lumisomes). Hydrophilic polysubstituted aryl acridinium esters are useful as chemiluminescent markers and can be encapsulated within liposome vesicles without significant leakage of the esters from the vesicles. The lumisomes can be coupled to molecules with biological activity, such as antigens, antibodies, and nucleic acids, and used in luminescent assays.
