    摘要: The assay of the subject invention uses DNA sequences as probes in a nucleic acid hybridization diffraction assay, to detect specific DNA sequences in a sample. Diffraction assay methodologies are applied to determine the presence and amount of analyte.This invention involves a discovery in the areas of supporting surfaces for a biogrid or biograting which provide greatly reduced non-specific hybridization and binding. A preferred process of this invention involves manufacturing a biograting for use in a light diffraction assay, and comprises adhering a uniform layer of hybridizing reagent comprising a nucleotide sequence on a smooth, solid surface and exposing the surface to UV radiation through a shadow mask with a diffraction grating pattern of lines to selectively deactivate the hybridizing reagent, leaving a biological diffraction grating design of lines of active hybridizing reagent. The smooth, solid surface is preferably selected from the group consisting of polysilicon and single crystalline silicon surfaces.The diffraction hybridizing assay method of this invention for determining the presence or quantity of an analyte in an aqueous sample comprises contacting a nucleic acid sequence diffraction biogrid with the sample under proper circumstances and for a sufficient time to permit nucleic acid hybridization between a nucleic acid sequence probe and an analyte; separating the biogrid from the sample; illuminating the biogrid with light from a light source; and determining the light diffracted by the diffraction hybridization assay surface.

    摘要: A reflective biograting consists of an optically flat layer of a transparent composition such as silicon dioxide having a first and second surface, alternating zones of active and inactive binding reagent on the first surface, and a reflective metal layer having a thickness of at least above 1000 .ANG.. The reflective metal layer can be supported on an optically flat surface of a wafer, and the reflective metal can be aluminum, silver, gold, chromium, nickel, titanium or platinum coating on a polished wafer. Preferably, the silicon dioxide layer is formed either by direct sputtering of silicon dioxide or by coating an alkali metal silicate solution on the surface of the reflective metal, optionally containing an aminoalkylsilane and a water-soluble hydroxylated polymer such as a dextran. Alternatively, the reflective support comprises one or more reflective layer units, each reflective layer unit comprising an optically flat layer of silicon, and preferably polysilicon, on a layer of silicon dioxide. Each layer of silicon has a thickness within the range of from 150 to 750 .ANG., from 850 to 1300 .ANG., or from 1700 to 2150 .ANG., and preferably within the range of from 200 to 600 .ANG.. Each layer of silicon dioxide has a thickness within the range of from 800 to 1200 .ANG.. The reflective support is supported on the substantially flat surface of an insoluble support.

    摘要: A storage-stable, high potency allergenic extract is prepared by ultrafiltration, retaining fractions having molecular weights of from 1000 to 100,000, and treating the solution with gel polymer and/or carbon absorbents. The extract is dried to a moisture content of less than one weight percent water. The purified solution and aqueous reconstituted solutions of the dried extract provide a transparent, colorless solution which has greatly increased stability, remaining transparent and colorless for extended periods.

    摘要: An inhibition assay for measuring the potency of allergen extracts by incubating a mixture of allergen extract and reference allergen specific IgE in a buffered solution with an insoluble support to which reference allergen is adhered. The conjugated IgE adhering to the insoluble support is reacted with an enzyme labeled anti-IgE antibody and the enzyme label is contacted with a solution of a substrate which will yield a fluorescent product in the presence of the enzyme. The level of fluoresence in the solution is measured. The percentage of inhibition of the allergen specific IgE is determined from fluorescence levels measured for various extract concentrations.

    摘要: A chymopapain derivative having the enzymatic activity reduced by at least 95% while retaining the original allergenic activity of at least 90% is suitable for skin testing to detect allergic hypersensitivity to chymopapain and for treating patients exhibiting allergic hypersensitivity to chymopapain. The enzymatic activity can be blocked by reacting thiol groups of the enzyme with and iodoacetic acid, bromoacetic acid, or a salt, ester or amide derivative thereof, under conditions which block the undesirable enzymatic activity while retaining the desired allergenic activity.
