The sensor consists of a disposable, polymer-modified, carbon electrode on which enzyme 1 is coimmobilized with a specific antibody that binds the corresponding antigen in a test solution. The solution also contains a conjugate of enzyme 2. An immunological reaction brings the two enzymes into close proximity at the electrode surface, and the signal is amplified through enzyme channeling. The localization of both enzymes on the electrode surface limits the enzymatic reactions to the polymer/membrane/electrode interface. The sensor overcomes the problem of discriminating between the signal that is produced by the immuno-bound enzyme label on the electrode surface and the background level of signal that emerges from the bulk solution. Combining enzyme-channeling reactions, optimizing hydrodynamic conditions, and electrochemically regenerating mediators within the membrane layer of the antibody electrode significantly increased the signal-to-noise ratio of the sensor. The amperometric enzyme-channeling immunosensor enabled the performance of separation-free EIAs without washing steps, resulting in a relatively short assay time of 5-30 min for the complete immunoassay, compared with at least 1-3 h for ELISA methods. Model systems using peroxidase-antibody, biotin-avidin, viral antigens (CD4-gp120), and bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus) were investigated. S. aureus cells were detected in pure culture at concentrations as low as 1000 cells/ml.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2da5c7c667c7d74efe67fd77b37abcca4/biblio24}, keywords = {immunoassay homogeneous electrochemistry immunosensor ecia ag_detection amperometry} } @article{citeulike:485887, title = {Enzyme channeling immunoassay: A new homogeneous enzyme immunoassay technique}, author = {David J.

We demonstrate that the use of ultrasonic energy to enhance mass transport across liquid/solid interfaces can dramatically accelerate antigen binding to immobilized antibodies. We use an ultrasound-accelerated procedure with an enzyme-channelling test strip containing glucose oxidase and specific antibody to the alpha-subunit of human choriogonadotropin (HCG) co-immobilized onto a cellulose support. A horseradish peroxidase conjugate of monospecific antibody to the beta-subunit of HCG is used in the liquid phase to complete the immune "sandwich." Use of ultrasound to accelerate binding and of enzyme channelling to eliminate wash steps result in a simple two-incubation protocol by which 25 int. units of urinary HCG per liter can be detected visually in less than 20 min of assay time.}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/264c40cb08d352ce7e4ac71f237f96e39/biblio24}, keywords = {immunoassay ecia ag_detection} } @article{citeulike:485945, title = {Bioluminescent immunosorbent for rapid immunoassays.}, author = {B.

The immunosorbent confines the bioluminescent reaction in a small volume, and the bound label produces NADH, which is directly used by the nearby luciferase FMN oxidoreductase enzyme system. On the contrary NADH produced by dehydrogenases in solution is directly oxidized without emitting light. Dehydrogenases contained in the biological sample do not interfere with the assay, which can be performed directly on 25 microliter of serum.

Instead, the intermediate in the two-step reaction (adenosine) must diffuse to the membrane surface, reducing the rate of product (ammonium) formation within the diffusion layer detected by the membrane.
