Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for the detection and / or quantification of molecules from a sample on an analysis medium formatted with digital data code, a detection reaction causing a change in the code words which can be read and interpreted sequentially in the predetermined format.
- Microarrays are one way of analyzing a large number of biological molecules.
- Microarray technology in which many different biomolecules such as DNA or proteins are packed tightly in a predefined pattern on a substrate surface, has meanwhile become the standard method for the parallel analysis of biological samples. This technology is e.g. used in the analysis of gene expression, in genetic diagnostics, in biological and pharmaceutical research and for the determination of genetically manipulated organisms in the food industry.
- biochemical sensor molecules such as DNA or proteins are applied to metal, glass, membrane or plastic surfaces, in particular polycarbonate supports. After contact with the applied sample, a detection of the molecular interaction and usually also a statement about the bound amount and / or about the strength of the interaction is made possible.
- the bonds are mostly detected by generating and detecting an optical signal.
- a microscope or a functionally similar device, in particular a CD reading head, is usually used (WO00 / 26677, WO00 / 36398).
- image evaluation which in the case of higher density microarrays is typically carried out by computer software after an analog-to-digital conversion.
- the information about a successful or non-successful binding at a certain point is marked by the deposition of granules (beads) at the location of the reaction of the analyte with the carrier-bound sensor molecule (e.g. EP918885 and Taton, Mirkin, Letsinger, Science 289 : 1757-1760 (2000)).
- beads bound in this way are either identified directly as bodies or they bring about a chemical reaction such as a color change or dye precipitate. These are mainly verified using photometric methods. A combination of camera and microscope is used to generate data that is evaluated by an image analysis in the computer.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide a quick and simple method for analyzing and detecting analytes, which enables a reliable interpretation of the results according to defined criteria and a quantitative statement.
- the invention proposes a method with the features mentioned in claim 1. Developments of the invention are the subject of Subclaims, the wording of which, like the wording of the abstract, is made by ' reference to the content of the description.
- the above-mentioned aim is achieved according to the invention by a method in which a molecular interaction at a specific point on the carrier leads to the generation of detectable structures, here referred to as signaling elements, which are in the context of the format defined in the form of a digital data code on the Analyzer carrier can be read and interpreted.
- Detection fields with the sensor elements required for the respective detection as well as further data structures in a digital format are applied to the analysis carrier and combined into sequences of format structures which can be interpreted without any doubt as code words.
- this is applied to the analysis carrier and a conversion of the digital signal level in the respective detection fields is initiated with the help of a signaling element.
- one code word is exchanged for another code word that is permitted within the set of valid code words.
- the statement about a successful or non-successful reaction is based on a comparison of the respective format structures before and after the proof.
- the exemplary embodiments are a CD, a magnetic card, an optical card and a barcode card.
- the method according to the invention has the advantage over known methods that an elaborate two-dimensional image analysis is unnecessary due to the digital data acquisition.
- the creation of a digital information structure eliminates the complicated and error-prone analog signal processing. A reliable interpretation of the results according to defined criteria is made possible.
- the analysis support and the reading device which is made up of common components from the consumer goods industry, can be easily coordinated with one another depending on the question, so that different tests can be developed and produced quickly and inexpensively in mass production.

- the present invention encompasses the following essential components which, in interaction, constitute the advantageous use of the method according to the invention:
- An analysis carrier consisting of a base carrier and blank, information and verification fields applied to it, which are formatted in a digital data code;
- the analysis medium is formatted with a defined digital data code.
- the format is determined by the choice of the specific technical implementation and the detection system used or the reader in general.
- the format is determined, for example, by the respective characteristics of pits and lands in CD technology, "high” and “low” levels in digital electronics, sound and pause in morse code, etc.
- the detection systems known from CD technology e.g. a defined geometry, length and arrangement of pits and lands on an optical disc, according to the Red Book standard from Philips, the respective format.
- the coding describes the set of rules according to which the information is evaluated.
- a code is the sum of all valid code words, whereby each code word is defined by a unique sequence of the specified format structures. Coding generally contains additional regulations, such as redundant error-correcting information, such as the formation of a checksum or interleaving, as prescribed, for example, by the Red Book standard in the CD industry.
- a binary code is given by a certain sequence of "0" and “1" levels (or “High” and “Low” levels) of a defined length.
- the binary code consists of sequences of format structures, which are defined by format elements "empty fields” and “information fields” (FIG. 1A) with specific signal levels and signal lengths.
- Information fields can be address fields or verification fields.
- sequences of format elements form one or more tracks on the analysis carrier.
- a track is divided into four different partial areas (FIG. 1A):
- Blank fields The interruptions are essential to determine the position of the detection field to be read out by counting or by addressing.
- the empty fields have a constant level ("0" or "1") and a variable length.
- the address fields have a constant level ("1" or "0") and can have different lengths.
- the address fields and the empty fields have inverse levels. If the empty fields have a "0" level, the level of the address field is "1" or vice versa.
- the sensor elements are applied here.
- the detection fields are characterized by a variable level ("0" or “1") and can have different lengths.
- a change in level from “0” to “1” or from “1” to “0” on a detection field indicates that the analyte has been detected (see below). All conceivable defined arrangements of format elements in one or two dimensions are possible and are hereby part of the invention.
- a basic idea of the present invention is to adapt the signaling elements on the detection fields to the specified format and to obtain the result of the respective biochemical detection from the comparison between the respective sequences of the format structures before and after the analysis carried out.
- the vocabulary of the code consists of a limited number of code words with a predetermined length, which are composed of the format elements "empty fields" and "information fields” with defined levels and lengths. Each word can contain one or more fields of evidence. Undefined words are not allowed and are interpreted as errors by the interpreter software. A certain number of code words advantageously has no detection fields and is used, for example, to separate and / or address larger code blocks. By combining or lining up sequences of format elements, the number of tests carried out on a carrier can be easily scaled. To determine the result of the proof, a defined sequence of
- Format elements two allowed code words A and B, which are characterized by the change in level differentiate from “0” to “1” or from “1” to “0” on at least one detection field (FIG. 1B).
- the levels on the detection fields are such that the sequence of format elements represents code word A, for example.
- a detection reaction results in an exchange of "0" for "1", or vice versa.
- code word A is converted into code word B.
- the respective sequence of format elements continues to represent code word A (FIG. IC). The result is interpreted by comparing the respective sequences of format structures before and after the analysis.
- the morse code is implemented on the analysis medium by a predetermined sequence of "low” and “high” levels. Assume that the "Low” level is always 1 and is represented by the "0" symbol. In this example, it only serves as a separator.
- the "high” level on the other hand, has either length 1 or 3 and is therefore represented by "1” or "111". Assume that code word A is defined by the sequence “1 0 1 1 1 0 1" and code word B by the sequence "1 0 1 0 1 0 1" (FIG. 1B).
- Both words have the same total length 7, but the level in the fourth position, which is supposed to correspond to a detection field on the analysis carrier, is different.
- a binding reaction on the detection field in the fourth position switches the "1" level to a "0" level at this point.
- the permitted word A is converted into the permitted word B (FIG. IC).
- the result of the proof results from the simple comparison between the starting word A given before the proof and the word read after the proof. If there is no reaction, word A is read ("test negative"), if there is a reaction, word B is read ("test positive”).
- Another code word C or an undefined word would be recognized during the interpretation and identified as an error. This property of the method can advantageously be used as a quality control.
- a format which is common in the consumer goods industry is preferably used on the analysis carrier according to the invention.
- This can, for example, audio CD, optical disc, CD-R, CD-RW or MO (ECMA 154, ISO / IEC 10090), CD-ROM (ECMA 130, ISO / IEC 10149), DVD-R (ECMA 268, ISO / IEC 16449) or subsequent standards.
- the invention is not limited to formats that use binary code. Other formats based on digital code systems are also conceivable and are therefore part of the invention.
- Multi-dimensional codes such as two-dimensional bar codes
- the use of such codes for biochemical detection can be advantageous because it enables parallel data processing, error correction and the acquisition of redundant information.
- parallel data acquisition e.g. B. by means of a camera or CCD chips, advantageous because it allows the absolute positions to be determined and addressed once. This is in contrast to a serial readout, in which a position must be determined using brands, addresses or synchronization.
- the analysis support can have an angular, round, oval or other two or three-dimensional shape.
- a substrate is used as the carrier, which is similar in geometry and handling to the conventional magnetic card (FIG. 2A).
- Magnetic and chip cards have found widespread use due to their practical size and easy handling. The main features are their robustness and the ability to accommodate a limited amount of information in a small space.
- the magnetic card contains a linearly arranged data strip with a constant distance from one of its outer edges. In combination with the simple reader, this results in simple mechanical handling - the card can even be pulled by hand through a reader. Because magnetic cards are cheaply produced in large numbers and the readers are simple to manufacture, this embodiment of the invention allows the construction of readers which are orders of magnitude cheaper in production and easier to operate than known apparatuses for the detection of biological analytes.

If several such test units are arranged one behind the other, they form a track (FIG. 1A). With an assumed track length of 6 cm, a single analysis number of up to 2000 can be achieved in one track. It is possible to run up to 2000 different tests on one

These include sugar, steroids, hormones, lipids, proteins, in particular mono- or polyclonal or recombinant Antibodies, peptides, antigens of all kinds, haptens, DNA, RNA as well as natural and artificial derivatives thereof, in particular aptamers and PNA, but also organic chemical agent libraries, such as those used in pharmacological research and development. Likewise, cells, microorganisms, viruses or parts thereof, membrane fragments, preparations and extracts from biological

- the extent of the detection fields can be less than 10 ⁇ m in one or two dimensions, advantageously less than 2 ⁇ m and particularly advantageously less than 1 ⁇ m.
- further molecules or signaling elements can be applied to adjacent detection fields, which are used for calibration or standardization of the analyzes.
- the sensor elements can be connected covalently or noncovalently to the carrier surface or applied to the carrier surface.
- the sensor elements can be applied mechanically to the analysis carrier, in particular by drop application, for example with the aid of inkjet printers (ink-jet printing) or printing needles (spotting), or by means of lithographic methods according to the prior art.
- the wetting fields with the sensor elements can also be wetted by means of channels, preferably microchannels or microfluidic networks (FIG. 3).
- the analysis carrier It is also possible to simply immerse the analysis carrier in a liquid bath containing the sensor elements after selective activation of detection fields or passivation of empty fields on a surface-activated carrier.
- a spin coating process can also be used to ensure, for example, surface activation of the surface.
- a material that is transparent for a specific light wavelength is used for the analysis carrier.
- the light-guiding properties of the carrier can be used to couple or synthesize certain molecules at the predefined locations via the location-selective light guiding.
- a synthesis controlled by electric fields directly on the carrier is also conceivable.
- the covalent linkage of the sensor elements can be achieved, for example, by binding already existing or specially introduced amino, thio or phospho groups to an end group-functionalized silanized support surface.
- biotinylated sensor elements can be specifically immobilized on the carrier surface by means of streptavidin coating.
- a basic idea of the present invention is to adapt the physical parameters of the signaling elements, such as size, shape and signal level, to the format structure applied in the form of empty and address fields. This is in contrast to the usual procedure, in which a suitable format structure and devices are developed for the given signal.
- the basic conditions such as positioning and dimensioning of the format elements and the signaling elements are predetermined by the coding.
- electromagnetic effects pieo, resonance shift, change in capacitance, Hall effect, magnetic effects, electrical charge shift, etc.
- Chemical processes such as silver deposition, oxide precipitation, oxidation or reduction of reagents, electroplating and the like can also be used for the detection.
- Further chemical, physical or biological signal transmitters known to the person skilled in the art can equally be used and are therefore part of the invention.
- a number of commercially available substances and bodies can be used as signaling elements, which can represent or form detectable structures. It can advantageously be microsphere (beads) (FIG. 6) in any shape and size, such as metal, magneto, silica or fluorescence-labeled beads, fluorescence or radioactive markers, and also molecular complexes or aggregates, layers of precipitates or dyes act.
- silver granules are formed on an initiator coupled to analyte molecules, in particular an electron donor such as metal molecule or metal granules, at the site of the interaction, usually a bond (FIG. 4).
- molecular complexes are formed in a reaction between two or more different binding partners, such as, for example, an avidin or streptavidin, and a further multiply biotinylated substance (FIG. 5).
- Biological objects of a suitable size such as cells, bacteria, pollen, virus particles or parts thereof, can also be used advantageously as signaling elements.
- the resulting detectable structure can also be generated by initiating a chemical reaction with another substance.
- a further substance is applied to defined locations on the carrier.
- the interaction between an analyte and the associated sensor element converts this substance into a detectable structure at the site of the reaction.
- an enzyme coupled to the analyte such as horseradish peroxidase (HRP)
- HRP horseradish peroxidase
- the reaction is made possible either by a spatial approach between the enzyme and the substrate or by a release of the substrate into the solution during the interaction between the sensor element and the analyte or immediately afterwards.
- the properties of the detectable structures in the form of signal-emitting elements which arise after an interaction between a sensor element and an analyte, and the resulting signal levels correspond to those specified on the carrier digital data format.
- These structures can be dimensioned using various methods known to the person skilled in the art. For example, the stoichiometric ratios of the concentrations of substances used can achieve saturation in the formation of signaling elements, so that after the desired size has been reached, no further effective growth of the signaling element takes place.
- the reactions leading to the formation of detectable structures can be blocked in a time-controlled manner. Blocking substances such as inhibitors in enzymatic reactions, competitors such as biotin in the example in FIG. 5, or substances which destroy free reactants, such as specific proteases, can be used for this purpose.
- the concentrations of substances used can achieve saturation in the formation of signaling elements, so that after the desired size has been reached, no further effective growth of the signaling element takes place.
- the reactions leading to the formation of detectable structures can be blocked
- Detection reactions in a flow system so that the reactants involved can be rinsed out of the reaction sites with a buffer after an experimentally determined optimal reaction time, which is necessary for the formation of detectable structures with the desired dimensions. If catalytic reactions are involved, they can also be stopped by removing or blocking the catalyst. In light-dependent reactions, switching off the light source also leads to a controlled termination of the reaction.
- Detection fields and signaling elements with dimensions smaller than 10 ⁇ m, in particular smaller than 2 ⁇ m and very particularly smaller than 1 ⁇ m are advantageously formed.
- a downward limitation of the miniaturization is given only by the resolution of the detection unit.
- detectable structures are created when there is an interaction between a sensor element and an analyte, which structures can be read and digitally interpreted in the data format previously applied to the carrier. In this way, the result can be interpreted directly as “test positive” or “test negative” by comparing the signals before and after detection in the context of the specified formatting.
- a molecular interaction can be used to generate an additional signal as well as to
- the appropriate contrast method ie the change in the signal level by the signaling element, must be selected depending on the standard protocol for the respective biochemical test, the measuring method and the analysis medium.

- Handling essentially a manual magnetic card reader.
- the reader is either permanently installed mechanically and the analysis support is pulled through, or the analysis support is firmly inserted and the reader is guided linearly over the support using an appropriate mechanism.
- the reading device is based on optical detection.
- the reading device essentially consists of a “light barrier” on one or both sides.
- a suitable reading head is used for detection, depending on the type of signal.
- the optical reading device can have, for example, but not exclusively, the embodiments described below.
- a commercially available CD reading head is used which works with reflection (FIG. 7A).
- a modified CD reading head is used, which, in contrast to the reading unit used in the CD player, also works with transmitted light or alternatively only with transmitted light (FIG. 7B). In this case you can use the one required for a conventional CD Avoid mirroring, which results in cheaper production of the analysis carrier.
- the analysis support can advantageously be oriented in both orientations, i.e. with the front, i.e. the side coated with sensor elements, to or away from the read-out unit, e.g. a CD reading head.
- the appropriate orientation depends on the biochemical detection protocol to be carried out, the respective signaling element, general boundary conditions, e.g. a covering of the test areas or the base material of the analysis carrier, and the detection method.
- the orientation of a mirrored front side with a light-scattering signal-emitting element to the optical readout unit is advantageous, because in this case a scattering element on the rear side would not be recognized.
- a conventional barcode reader is used if the detection fields on the carrier are arranged in parallel strips in a barcode-like pattern (Fig. 8A).
- a large number of parallel detection fields with identical substances can be found on one
- Test strips must be placed next to each other. The test results are true to the angle, e.g. read orthogonal to the reading direction of the barcode reader (Fig. 8B). This enables multiple measurements to be carried out when a test is carried out in order to obtain statistical information.
- a test strip subdivided in this way can have detection fields which contain different gradually arranged concentrations of sensor elements, so that quantitative statements can be made. In this way, evidence in micro and macro dimensions can be realized in any combination on a carrier.
- the parallel traces of detection fields on an analysis carrier can advantageously also be read out in parallel with multi-focus optics, for example with 7 parallel light beams, such as are already used in part in modern CD-ROM devices.

- CD-ROM, CD-R and DVD readers as well as magneto-optical and magnetic detectors, linear CCD arrays or photodiode arrays are equally suitable as detectors as CD reading heads.
- the invention is not limited to optical data recording.
- Magnetic detection methods in particular can serve as analysis carriers due to their wide use in consumer goods electronics.
- Magnetic cards in banking and tapes and hard drives in the computer industry are examples of this.
- the associated reading systems can be used as reading devices after minor adjustments to the geometry of the respective analysis carrier.
- a reading head uses a senso-electrical converter to generate analog signals, which can be processed directly for transmission in an evaluation system using digital conversion and downstream microprocessor logic.
- the analysis carrier is evaluated in four steps: a) Measurement of the analog signal level e.g. using a CD pickup; b) digitization of the analog signals, i.e. Generation of a digital signal sequence based on a threshold criterion; c) interpretation of the digital signal stream on the basis of predefined format structures; d) Comparison with the signal sequences permitted within the format structure.
- the analog signal levels are digitized in a standard device, for example in an electronic module with a standard AD converter logic. Image processing is omitted because the device specifies binary threshold criteria (FIG. 9).
- the data acquisition is automatically synchronized based on the specified sequence of verification, address and empty fields. In a more extensive version, it can be provided, with the aid of digital signal processing (DSP, microprocessor, etc.), to emphasize or suppress special features of the signaling elements in order to obtain clear statements. This can be achieved, for example, by means of filtering or frequency analysis, in that only signals with specific characteristics of the signaling elements and the format structures are taken into account in the evaluation.
- the incoming digital data stream is checked in an interpreter to determine whether the chronological sequence of signal levels is permissible within the specified data format. This implements direct control and error detection.
- the signal sequence to be analyzed also contains the position information required for the test. The received signal sequence is interpreted by a comparison with the permitted sequences. A sequence that is permitted but not expected within the coding clearly indicates an
- a series of individual tests on an analysis carrier can be realized by several sequences of format elements arranged in rows.
- the format elements including the detection fields are inserted directly into the track of the pits and lands on the CD.
- the signal levels, the signal lengths and also the interpretation of the signal sequences are given here by the "Red Book” standard from Philips.
- the evaluation steps a) to c) are implemented in every standard CD player. The test is then evaluated directly by comparing the specified input code word with the read output code word.
- the downstream computer system requires special software for evaluating the test housed on the carrier, which is tailored to the respective analyzer carrier.
- This software can be applied in an advantageous embodiment in the data areas present on the same carrier. If the analyzer is designed in form and function accordingly, readers such as diskette or
- Removable disk drives, CD-ROM players or comparable devices and their successors, with which the carrier is compatible in principle, can be used to read the software.
- a plurality of reading devices can advantageously also be present in one device.
- the analysis software can also access databases optionally available on the carrier in order to keep access to standard values that are required in the context of the specific analysis.
