Description

Digital ELISA detection device and detection method
Technical Field
The invention relates to enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, in particular to a digital ELISA detection device and a detection method.
Background
Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) is a diagnostic technique for detecting the presence of viral or tumor markers. Can be used to detect any antigen in serum, plasma and urine, such as a virus or tumor associated antigen. There are many ELISA detection formats, of which the two-antibody sandwich detection is typical, the targeted biomarker is first captured exclusively by a capture antibody (covalently attached to the inner surface of the reaction chamber) via an antigen-antibody reaction. The unbound antibody is washed away by washing, and a biosimilar detection antibody that binds to the antigen is added, and then an enzyme-bound antibody that can undergo a color reaction is subjected to a fluorescence reaction. The enzyme enhances the fluorescence reaction to generate a fluorescence product in the fluorescent substrate aqueous solution, and the concentration of the biomarker is determined by the fluorescence intensity.
Whereas digital ELISA can achieve higher sensitivity. In digital ELISA, the fluorescence reaction is performed in a series of microliter volumes of microcavities. The concentration of the target biomarker is determined by the proportion of light and dark microchambers detected by the CMOS image sensor. Therefore, the enzyme can be replaced by the corresponding fluorescent dye, and the compact medical diagnostic equipment can realize low-power consumption, portable and daily biomarker detection and is widely applied in practice. In countries with limited resources, it can be a powerful tool for inhibiting infectious epidemics, and also helps to find diseases early and treat them effectively in home diagnosis.
