Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for determining a ligand in a fluid sample by bringing the sample into contact with a surface of an optical element which is capable of generating an evanescent field and which surface is provided with a specific binding partner for the ligand to be determined; irradiating the optical element with light of a wavelength suitable for production of the evanescent field; and analysing the reflected light in order to determine the possibly modified evanescent field characteristics of the optical element as a consequence of the formation of a complex between the ligand and the specific binding partner.
  • SPR surface plasmon resonance
  • a method of this type is disclosed in International Patent
  • Fig. 1 (1) represents a shallow well in a clear plastic material, the flat base (2) of which is provided at the surface with a diffraction grating (3).
  • the upper surface of the grating (3) is covered with a semi-reflecting material or a metal film, such as, for example, of silver, aluminium, copper or gold.
  • the grating is coated with a thin film of specific binding partners for the ligand to be determined.
  • specific binding partners for the ligand for example, anti- gens can be used as ligand and antibodies for the particular antigen as specific binding partners (see Fig. 2) .
  • the determination as such takes place in a housing (4) which is shown in Fig. 1 and which is provided with a laser light source (5) , from which laser light is directed at a suitable angle onto the underside of the base (2) in order to generate the "surface plasmon resonance" (SPR) effect in the grating (3) .
  • the reflected light is captured via a light detector (6), which is also fitted in the housing (4), and the electrical signal originating from detector (6) is processed in a measuring apparatus (7) , which may or may not be fitted in the housing (4).
  • the signal originating from detector (6) changes if the relevant ligand, which binds to the specific binding partners bound to the metal layer, is present in the sample (8) , which is placed in the well (1) .
  • the aim indicated above can be achieved if, in the method described in the preamble, the sample is used in combination with a suspension of supports in particle form, which supports carry the ligand (competition assay; see Fig. 3a and in particular 3*>) •
  • the aim according to the invention can also be achieved if, in the method described in the preamble, an optical element is used of which the surface located at the fluid/solid interface is provided with a multiplicity of supports in particle form, which supports contain binding partners specific for the ligand (see Fig. ).
  • the abovementioned aim can likewise be achieved with the aid of an optical element of which the surface located at the fluid/ solid interface contains a multiplicity of specific binding partners which are provided with a "leaving agent" in the form of particles reversibly bound to said specific binding partners (see Fig. 5) •
  • the term "leaving agent" is defined as a support in particle form which is provided with at least one ligand.
  • the abovementioned aim can also be achieved with the aid of an optical element of which the surface located at the fluid/solid interface contains a multiplicity of binding partners specific for the ligand, some of which are provided with the ligand and some with the "leaving agent", in accordance with an equilibrium setting with a medium, which is advantageously circulated, in which the ligand and the "leaving agent" are present in a constant concentration, this equilibrium setting temporarily shifting after administration of a sample to be investigated and giving a corresponding change in the evanescent field (Fig. 6a) .
  • An important advantage of this last-mentioned solution lies in the fact that in this way "continuous" measurements can be carried out using, for example, SPR measuring equipment (Fig.
  • a membrane which is permeable to the ligand to be measured but impermeable to the "leaving agent” is preferably inserted between the optical element and the location at which the sample to be investigated is supplied (Fig. 7).
  • the above ⁇ mentioned medium, which is advantageously circulated has to contain only the relevant ligand in a constant concentration since the "leaving agent" cannot escape from the space between the membrane and the surface of the optical element.
  • a particular variant of the first-mentioned solution consists in the use of an optical element of which the surface located at the fluid/solid interface is provided with a multiplicity of supports in particle form which contain binding partners specific for the ligand, these specific binding partners also being provided with a "leaving agent" in the form of a particle reversibly bound to said specific binding partners (see Fig. 8) .

  • gold sols, silver sols and the like can also be used as support in particle form. It is also possible to use combinations of particles, such as, for example, particles of different size, particles containing different functional groups, particles having different intrinsic refractive indices and also latex with a metal sol.
  • the combination of a latex with a metal sol can provide extra sensitivity and specificity in connection with overlap of two evanescent fields, that is to say the evanescent field generated with the apparatus and the evanescent field generated by the metal particle.
  • the "degree of coverage" of the surface of the optical element, which is provided with the loaded supports in particle form can vary greatly.
  • the degree of coverage depends on the size of the support particles or on the type of specific binding partner, such as antibodies and DNA strands.
  • the degree of coverage is 50-99•5 *•
  • “degree of coverage” of the surface of the optical element by the (“spherical") supports in particle form is understood to mean the ratio of the sum of the sur ⁇ face area of the cross-section of the "spherical" supports multiplied by a factor of 100, divided by the total surface area of the optical element.
  • the “degree of loading” of the specific binding partners on the spherical supports is understood to be the ratio of the loaded surface area, that is to say the surface area covered by the specific binding partners, of the spherical supports multiplied by a factor of 100, divided by the total surface area of the spherical supports in the monolayer or sub-monolayer. In general, this degree of loading is 10-90#.

  • the supports loaded with specific binding partners can be bound to the metal layer of the optical element by means of absorption or by means of the application of a thin layer of adhesive or sticky layer of another type via a dip technique, spin coating or other generally known deposition techniques.
  • the above procedure can be carried out in reverse by first carrying out the adhesion of the spheres to the metal layer of the optical element and then the immobilisation of the specific binding partners on the spheres acting as supports.
  • the supports in particle form can also be applied to the metal surface via a flat coating, such as a polystyrene coating, that is to say the supports in particle form are immobilised in an indirect manner on the metal surface.
  • the sensitivity of the measuring system can be optimised using combinations of supports in particle form, antibodies and antigens. This is dependent on the application which is developed.
  • the supports in particle form act as an interface between the biological domain and the optical domain.
  • the light sources used can be the light sources known from the prior art, such as the helium-neon laser light source and the infrared diode laser light source.

A PCR mixture containing DNA (35 ⁇ l) was then added to one tube. This tube was mixed well using a vortex stirrer. Finally, the contents of both tubes were transferred to two cuvettes, after which the SPR determinations were carried out. On the basis of photographs of the gel, the DNA concentration was estimated to be 2, 3 ⁇ 4 and 6 ⁇ g/ml. The length of the DNA fragments was in the range of from 400- 2900 bp. A blank PCR mixture, that is to say the PCR mixture, but no DNA, was present, served as blank determination in this example.
