TRIGGERING
Description of the Invention
This invention involves a method to detect and quantify reaction partners of a
chemiluminescence reaction involving acridinium ester and reductive triggering conditions. Apart from a new method to detect and quantify acridinium esters, in another aspect this invention also relates to the detection and quantification of reducing compounds by recording the chemiluminescence of these reducing compounds in the presence of acridinium ester and certain oxidants. In yet another aspect of this invention oxidative compounds are detected and quantified by recording the chemiluminescence of these oxidizing compounds in the presence of acridinium ester and certain reducing compounds.

Acridinium esters are well-known in literature and can be prepared by known methods (US 2009/0318627, US 2008/0014660, US6673560, US 6087502, US5879953, US 3539574, Luminescence;2000; 15:311-320, EP0915851). From literature it is well known that acridinium esters (AE) undergo efficient chemiluminescent reaction upon triggering with basic hydrogen peroxide
Contrary to the luminol reaction no catalyst is required. The mechanism involves attack by hydrogen peroxide anion on the C-9 position of the acridinium nucleus, followed by intramolecular nucleophilic attack on the carbonyl group. In this way a four membered highly strained dioxetane ring system is formed, decomposition of which is accompanied by light emission.

From literature (Yildiz and Demiryurek, J PharmacolToxMethods 1998;39: 179-84) it is known that ferrous ion induces luminol chemiluminescence at pH 7.4 but ferrous ion is inactive with lucigenin (bis-N-methylacridinium nitrate).

This CL is quenched by mannitol, a well known quencher of hydroxyl radicals.
In a paper by Li et al (Microchimica Acta 2005;149:205-12) the CL reaction of ascorbic acid in the presence of ferric (Fe(III)) ions with luminol at high pH is described. The authors suggest that ferrous (Fe(II)) ions are intermediates in this reaction.

This secondary CL emission could be used to measure reducing agents like caffeine, sulfite, Fe(II), etc in a flow- injection method.
75 The authors don't mention or imply the use of acridinium esters under these conditions.
Detailed description of the invention
It has now been unexpectedly found that certain acridinium esters (FIGURE 8) can be triggered under reductive conditions very efficiently. Reductive conditions include ferrous or
80 cuprous ions, either directly or by reduction from ferric or cupric ions by a suitable reductant like ascorbate or trolox, but also metals like zinc. In this way ferrous ions can be detected down to less than 3 nanomolar. Reversely, certain acridinium esters can be detected down to less than 3 picogram upon triggering with ferrous ions. This reaction also can be used to determine the reductant with great sensitivity. Ascorbate can be detected down to less than
85 100 nanomolar.
In the course of this work other reductive conditions were found like the mixture of certain quinones and organic compounds like dithiothreitol (DTT), tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine (TCEP), or reduced glutathione (GSH) which gave chemiluminescence in the presence of certain acridinium compounds.
90 Moreover, kinetic analysis indicate that, depending on the reductive condition, two pathways, the one originating from hydrogen peroxide and the other originating from another form of reduced oxygen, can be seen separately.
This reductive triggering of acridinium esters can be applied in a number of ways:
• Using one aspect of this invention, acridinium ester labeled entities (antigens, 95 antibodies, proteins, DNA, etc) can be detected and quantified under reductive
conditions, e.g. by triggering with ferrous ions.
• Using another aspect of this invention oxidants (or mixtures of oxidants) can be
detected and quantified by adding a reducing compound (e.g. ascorbate, DTT, or TCEP), and after a suitable incubation time adding an acidic solution of an acridinium
100 ester, followed by triggering the CL reaction by raising the pH.
• In another aspect of this invention reducing compounds (or mixtures of reducing
compounds) can be detected and quantified by adding an oxidant (e.g. ferric or cupric ions or 9,10-phenanthrenequinone (PQ)), and after a suitable incubation time adding
an acidic solution of an acridinium ester, followed by triggering the CL reaction by raising the pH.
• In yet another aspect of this invention superoxide anion (or superoxide producing systems, e.g. xanthine oxidase/xanthine) can be detected and quantified by adding an acidic solution of an acridinium ester, followed by triggering the CL reaction by raising the pH. The response of this reaction can be discriminated from the hydrogen peroxide induced CL-reaction of acridinium ester by time resolution.
Definitions
Reductive conditions are those conditions which allow a compound (a so-called reductant, reducer, or reducing agent) to transfer one or more electrons to an acceptor (a so-called oxidant, oxidizer, or oxidizing agent). Examples of reductants are metals (potassium, calcium, barium, sodium and magnesium), nascent hydrogen (i.e. formed by reaction of zinc metal and acid), and metal ions like ferrous (Fe(II)), cuprous (Cu(I)), stannous (Sn(II), and the like, thiols e.g. glutathion, cysteine, dithiothreitol (DTT), TCEP (tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine), and the like, vitamins e.g. ascorbate (vitamin C), and vitamin E, urate, trolox, etc, etc.
Reductive conditions can also be combinations of oxidants e.g. ferric, cupric, quinone, etc. in combination with reductants which are capable of reducing the oxidants e.g. ferrous (Fe(III)) to ferric (Fe(II)), cuprous (Cu(II)) to cupric (Cu(I)), ascorbate to dehydroascorbate, etc, etc. In the course of these reactions also reduced forms of molecular oxygen may be formed, e.g. superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide.
Examples
Example 1: Acridinium ester detection under reducing conditions compared with
H202-triggering
Calibration standards of acridinium ester (formula E) (0-1000 pg/well) were treated with ferrous sulphate (10-lOOuM), a combination of ferric chloride (10-lOOuM) and ascorbate (10- lOOuM), or hydrogen peroxide (100-lOOOuM). Chemiluminescence reaction was triggered by the addition of sodium carbonate buffer (pH 9) and the resulting signal accumulated during the first 10 seconds. Calibration curves were constructed using the 4-5 seconds integral values of the kinetic profiles and were expressed as signal-background ratios against amounts of
acridinium ester. The results are shown in the figure:

Chemilummescence reaction was triggered by the addition of sodium carbonate buffer (pH 9) containing TCEP (lOOuM) and the resulting signal accumulated during the first 10 seconds. Calibration curves were constructed using the 4-5 seconds integral values of the kinetic profiles and were expressed as signal-background ratios against amounts of acridinium ester. The results for 30 uM PQ are shown in the figure.

160 phenanthrenequinone (PQ, 0-1 OuM) were prepared. To the wells containing hydrogen
peroxide water was added, while the wells containing PQ were treated with 50 uL of TCEP (lOOuM). Acridinium ester (formula E) (100 ng/niL, 10 uL/well) was added.
Chemilummescence reaction was triggered by the addition of sodium carbonate buffer (pH 9) and the resulting signal accumulated during the first 10 seconds. The results are shown in the
165 figure:

After that time acridinium ester (formula E) (lOOng/mL, lOuL/well) was added. 180 Chemilummescence reaction was triggered by the addition of sodium carbonate buffer (pH 9) and the resulting signal accumulated during the first 10 seconds. Calibration curves were constructed using the 0-2 seconds integral values of the kinetic profiles and were expressed as signal-background ratios against amounts of soot extract. The results are shown in the figure:
