Definitions

  • the present invention is directed to chemiluminescent compounds for use as labels in analytic reactions such as immunochemical reactions.
  • radioactive labels fluorescent labels, and enzyme labels. While all of these labels are used extensively, each type of label has unique disadvantages.
  • Radioactive labels particularly high-energy radioactive labels such as 125 I (the most commonly employed radioisotope in immunochemistry), have several disadvantages.
  • the radioisotopes have a short half-life, i.e., 125 I decays with a half-life of approximately sixty days.
  • 125 I the radioactive atom incorporated in a molecule decays, it destroys the molecule in which it is incorporated and can cause damage to other molecules in the preparation.
  • radioactively labeled preparations have extremely short shelf-lives. Moreover, because of the radiation they emit, radioactive labels require special safety
  • Fluorescent labels avoid the disadvantages of radioactive labels but have other disadvantages of their own. Notably, they are less sensitive than radioactive labels, and the use thereof requires activation by an extrinsic light source. This requirement of activation by an extrinsic light source makes their detection more difficult, as two wavelengths of light are involved, an emission wavelength and an excitation wavelength.
  • Enzyme labels can be extremely sensitive, but these too have disadvantages. Their detection requires at least one additional step, a development step, to allow the enzyme to carry out its reaction so that a detectable product can be produced. This step requires the use of additional reagents to the reaction, including buffers, substrates and/or coenzymes. Moreover, it is not possible to use enzyme labels in all assays. If the assay requires a step that inactivates or denatures the enzyme or results in ionic, pH, or other conditions incompatible with the activity of the particular enzyme used as the label, enzyme labels cannot be used. Because of the above deficiencies, increased attenti.on has focused on chemilumi.nescent labels as alternative labels for these types of assays.
  • Chemiluminescence is a direct generation of light from a chemical reaction. The mechanism of most
  • chemiluminescent reactions is not known in detail, but a generalized mechanism can be outlined:
  • Compound A undergoes a chemical reaction, usually oxidation, to yield a product in an electronically excited state ("B * "). As this product returns to its ground state (“B”), it gives off energy in the form of light ( “hv” ). Typically, the light is in the visible range.
  • chemiluminescence occurs when the vibronically excited product of an exogenic chemical reaction reverts to its ground state with the emission of protons, with the reactions invariably being both oxidative and biphasic. Because the excitation energy is obtained from the chemical energy of reaction, the process is chemiluminescence.
  • the characteristics and behavior of several different chemiluminescent compounds can be found in Gundermann & McCapra,
  • Chemiluminescent labels are preferred over the previously noted labels for several reasons.
  • Chemiluminescent labels have high sensitivity ⁇ in many cases, sensitivity down to the femtomole (10 -15 mole) to attomole (10 -18 mole) range has been recorded.
  • chemiluminescent labels can thus match or exceed the sensitivity of radioactive labels or enzyme labels.
  • Luminol and isoluminol derivatives are the most widely used chemiluminescent reagents for immunoassays.
  • the light-yielding reaction is initiated by oxidation with alkaline hydrogen peroxide in the presence of catalysts such as horseradish peroxidase,
  • AEEI Aminobutylethyl isoluminol
  • a second group of chemiluminescent reagents is aryl oxalates. These reagents have been used as
  • 10-methyl-acridinium-9-carboxylic acid aryl esters are chemiluminescent in the presence of alkaline hydrogen peroxide and in the absence of a catalyst.
  • the mechanism is believed to involve initial attack by a hydroperoxide anion, followed by intramolecular displacement of the phenolate (the "leaving group") to give a strained dioxetane-one.
  • the strained dioxetane-one decomposes to CO 2 and excited N-methyl-acridone, which emits light at 430 nm.
  • Carboxy-substituted acridinium salts have been used as labels in immunoassays.
  • 5-methyl-phenanthridinium-6-carboxylic acid aryl esters which are isomeric with the acridinium aryl esters, have been used as labels in immunoassays.
  • chemiluminescent labels have several disadvantages, including relatively low quantum yield and undue sensitivity to hydrolysis, especially under conditions necessary to preserve the stability of the labile biological molecules such as antibodies to which they are attached. For example, it has been reported that antibody-conjugated phenyl
  • 10-methyl-9-acridinium carboxylates lose More than 10% of their activity within three days at about pH 4.0. These labels are only stable below pH 4.0, a degree of acidity to which many antibodies and other proteins are

Abstract

De nouveaux composés chimioluminescents sont appropriés pour être utilisés dans le marquage de molécules biologiques pour des analyses telles que des immunoanalyses. Ces marques chimioluminescentes se caractérisent par l'incorporation de groupes partants stables. Une classe de ces marques chimioluminescentes comprend des sels dans lesquels le groupe partant contient un atome de carbone carboxyle ou son équivalent isoélectronique et un cycle à cinq membres, y compris au moins un hétéroatome. L'hétéroatome est de préférence de l'oxygène ou du soufre. Ce groupe partant est lié à une fraction chargée positivement pouvant produire de la lumière par chimioluminescence, et peut-être une fraction d'acridinium, phénanthridinium, quinolinium ou benzacridinium. Tant le groupe partant que la fraction chargée positivement peuvent être substitués, par exemple avec des substituants réactifs pour associer de manière covalente l'étiquette ou marque à une molécule biologique. Des substituants sur le cycle à cinq membres du groupe partant peuvent former un cycle additionnel. Une classe additionnelle de ces marques chimioluminescentes comprend un groupe chimique qui peut produire de la lumière par chimioluminescence et relié par covalence à un groupe partant comprenant une fraction contenant un atome de soufre, de phosphore ou de carbone lié par une double liaison à un ou plusieurs atomes électronégatifs.
