Abstract
Procalcitonin (PCT) serves as a crucial biomarker utilized in diverse clinical contexts, including sepsis diagnosis and emergency departments. Its applications extend to identifying pathogens, assessing infection severity, guiding drug administration, and implementing theranostic strategies. However, current clinical deployed methods cannot meet the needs for accurate or real-time quantitative monitoring of PCT. This review aims to introduce these emerging PCT immunoassay technologies, focusing on analyzing their advantages in improving detection performances, such as easy operation and high precision. The fundamental principles and characteristics of state-of-the-art methods are first introduced, including chemiluminescence, immunofluorescence, latex-enhanced turbidity, enzyme-linked immunosorbent, colloidal gold immunochromatography, and radioimmunoassay. Then, improved methods using new materials and new technologies are briefly described, for instance, the combination with responsive nanomaterials, Raman spectroscopy, and digital microfluidics. Finally, the detection performance parameters of these methods and the clinical importance of PCT detection are also discussed.

Abstract
Given the long-life expectancy of the newborn, research aimed at improving sepsis diagnosis and management in this population has been recognized as cost-effective, which at early stages continues to be a tremendous challenge. Despite there is not an ideal-specific biomarker, the simultaneous detection of biomarkers with different behavior during an infection such as procalcitonin (PCT) as high specificity biomarker with one of the earliest biomarkers in sepsis as interleukin-6 (IL-6) increases diagnostic performance. This is not only due to their high positive predictive value but also, since it can also help the clinician to rule out infection and thus avoid the use of antibiotics, due to their high negative predictive value. To this end, we explore a cutting-edge micromotor (MM)-based OFF-ON dual aptassay for simultaneous determination of both biomarkers in 15 min using just 2 μL of sample from low-birth-weight neonates with gestational age less than 32 weeks and birthweight below 1000 g with clinical suspicion of late-onset sepsis. The approach reached the high sensitivities demanded in the clinical scenario (LODPCT = 0.003 ng/mL, LODIL6 = 0.15 pg/mL) with excellent correlation performance (r > 0.9990, p < 0.05) of the MM-based approach with the Hospital method for both biomarkers during the analysis of diagnosed samples and reliability (Er < 6% for PCT, and Er < 4% for IL-6). The proposed approach also encompasses distinctive technical attributes in a clinical scenario since its minimal sample volume requirements and expeditious results compatible with few easy-to-obtain drops of heel stick blood samples from newborns admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit. This would enable the monitoring of both sepsis biomarkers within the initial hours after the manifestation of symptoms in high-risk neonates as a valuable tool in facilitating prompt and well-informed decisions about the initiation of antibiotic therapy.These results revealed the asset behind micromotor technology for multiplexing analysis in diagnosing neonatal sepsis, opening new avenues in low sample volume-based diagnostics.

Abstract
Sensitive detection of procalcitonin (PCT) in serum is crucial for the timely diagnosis and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. In this work, an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detection platform is developed based on in-situ growth of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) in nanochannels and an analyte-gated detection signal, which can realize ECL determination of PCT with high sensitivity. Vertically ordered mesoporous silica films with amine groups and uniform nanochannel array (NH2-VMSF) is easily grown on the supporting indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode through electrochemical assisted self-assembly method (EASA). Anchored by the amino groups, AuNPs were grown in-situ within the nanochannels to catalyze the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and amplify the ECL signal of luminol. An immuno-recognitive interface is constructed on the outer surface of NH2-VMSF, through covalent immobilization of PCT antibodies. In the presence of PCT, the immunocomplex will hinder the diffusion of luminol and co-reactants, leading to a gating effect and decreased ECL signals. Based on this principle, the immunosensor can detect PCT in the range from 10 pg/mL to 100 ng mL-1 with a limit of detection (LOD) of 7 pg mL-1. The constructed immunosensor can also be used for detecting PCT in serum. The constructed sensor has advantages of simple fabrication and sensitive detection, demonstrating great potential in real sample analysis.

Abstract
An exciting trend in clinical diagnostics is the development of easy-to-use, minimally invasive assays for screening and prevention of disease at the point of care. Proximity Extension Assay (PEA), an homogeneous, dual-recognition immunoassay, has proven to be sensitive, specific and convenient for detection or quantitation of one or multiple analytes in human plasma. In this paper, the PEA principle was applied to the detection of procalcitonin (PCT), a widely used biomarker for the identification of bacterial infection. A simple, short PEA protocol, with an assay time suitable for point-of-care diagnostics, is presented here as a proof of concept. Pairs of oligonucleotides and monoclonal antibodies were selected to generate tools specifically adapted to the development of an efficient PEA for PCT detection. The assay time was reduced by more than 13-fold compared to published versions of PEA, without significantly affecting assay performance. It was also demonstrated that T4 DNA polymerase could advantageously be replaced by other polymerases having strong 3'>5' exonuclease activity. The sensitivity of this improved assay was determined to be about 0.1 ng/mL of PCT in plasma specimen. The potential use of such an assay in an integrated system for the low-plex detection of biomarkers in human specimen at the point of care was discussed.

Abstract
Liver fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP) is an intercellular lipid chaperone protein that selectively combines with unsaturated free fatty acids and transports them to mitochondria or peroxisomes. L-FABP is a promising biomarker for the early detection of renal diseases in humans. Herein a chemiluminescence method (CLIA) was demonstrated to measure the level of urinary L-FABP in the urinary samples. An anti-(L-FABP)-magnetic beads complex was prepared to capture the analyte target. Sensitivity, precision, accuracy, interference effect, high-dose hook effect of the developed assay were evaluated. Under the suitable experimental parameters, the established method have a wide linear range (0.01-10 ng/mL) and also showed a sufficiently low limit of detection of 0.0060 ng/mL. Besides, the satisfactory recoveries of the method in the urinary were ranged from 97.74%-112.32%, which was well within the requirement of clinical analysis. Furthermore, this proposed method has been successfully applied to the clinical determination of L-FABP in patients who have been diagnosed with kidney disease. The results showed that CLIA could accurately and rapidly determine the urinary level of L-FABP with high-throughput, which could be useful as a new tool to predict complications in patients with kidney disease. The clinical trial was approved by Shuyang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Ethics Committee: 20,210,202-001 at February 2, 2021.

Abstract
A novel method for the detection of procalcitonin in a homogeneous system by matched carbon dots (CDs) labeled immunoprobes was proposed based on the principle of FRET and double antibody sandwich method. Blue-emitting carbon dots with a strong fluorescence emission range of 400-550 nm and red-emitting carbon dots with the best excitation range of 410-550 nm were prepared before they reacted with procalcitonin protoclone antibody pairs to form immunoprobes. According to the principles of FRET, blue-emitting carbon dots were selected as the energy donor and red-emitting carbon dots as the energy receptor. The external light source excitation (310 nm) could only cause weak luminescence of CDs. However, once procalcitonin was added, procalcitonin and antibodies would be combined with each other quickly (≤20 min). Here, blue-emitting carbon dots acquired energy could be transferred to red-emitting carbon dots efficiently, causing the emitted fluorescence enhancement of red-emitting carbon dots. The fluorescence detection results in PBS buffer solution and diluted rabbit blood serum showed that the fluorescence intensity variation was linear with the concentration of procalcitonin. There was a good linear relationship betweenF/F0 and procalcitonin concentrations in PBS buffer solution that ranged from 0 to 100 ng ml-1, and the linear equation wasF/F0 = 0.004 *Cpct + 0.98359. Detection in the diluted rabbit serum led to the results that were linear in two concentration ranges, including 0-40 ng ml-1and 40-100 ng ml-1, and the detection limit based on 3σK-1was 0.52 ng ml-1. It is likely that this matched CDs labeled immunoprobes system can provide a new mode for rapid homogeneous detection of disease markers.

Abstract
Based on the necessity and urgency of detecting infectious disease marker procalcitonin (PCT), a novel unlabeled photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunosensor was prepared for the rapid and sensitive detection of PCT. Firstly, SnO2 porous nanoflowers with good photocatalytic performance were prepared by combining hydrothermal synthesis and calcining. BiOI nanoflowers were synthesized by facile ultrasonic mixed reaction. Ag2S quantum dots were deposited on SnO2/BiOI composites by in situ growth method. The SnO2/BiOI/Ag2S composites with excellent photoelectric properties were employed as substrate material, which could provide significantly enhanced and stable signal because of the energy level matching of SnO2, BiOI and Ag2S and the good light absorption performance. Accordingly, a PEC immunosensor based on SnO2/BiOI/Ag2S was constructed by using the layered modification method to achieve high sensitivity analysis of PCT. The linear dynamic range of the detection method was 0.50 pg·mL-1~100 ng·mL-1, and the detection limit was 0.14 pg·mL-1. In addition, the designed PEC immunosensor exhibited satisfactory sensitivity, selectivity, stability and repeatability, which opened up a new avenue for the analyzation of PCT and further provided guidance for antibiotic therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As two important tumor markers, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) have a great value for clinical application in the early diagnosis of cancer. Due to the complex composition of biological samples, the results from combined detection of CEA and VEGF are often taken as a comprehensive indicator in order to make an accurate judgment on a disease. However, most of the current methods can only be used to detect the content of one biomarker. Therefore, it is necessary to explore a simple, rapid, low-cost, and highly sensitive method for the simultaneous detection of CEA and VEGF. METHODS Based on specific aptamers and magnetic separation, a time-resolved chemiluminescence enzyme-linked aptamer assay was developed for the simultaneous detections of CEA and VEGF in serum samples. RESULTS Under the optimal conditions, the linear range of the calibration curve for VEGF was from 0.5 to 80 ng mL-1, and the limit of detection was 0.1 ng mL-1. The linear range of the calibration curve for CEA was 0.5 to 160 ng mL-1, and the limit of detection was 0.1 ng mL-1. The established method was applied to detect VEGF and CEA in serum samples. The results were consistent with those of commercial kits. CONCLUSION The method has high sensitivity and can quickly obtain accurate results, which could greatly improve the measurement efficiency, reduce the cost, and also reduce the volume of sample consumed. It can be seen that the method established in this study has important application value and broad application prospect in clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
A chemiluminescent immunoassay for human serum osteocalcin, or bone Gla protein, was established using a double-antibody sandwich model. Examination of the hook effect revealed that it was significantly reduced, and no hook effect was observed at an osteocalcin concentration of 4000 ng/mL. The established method showed good analytical performance and thermal stability. The limit of detection was 0.03 ng/mL. The intra-assay coefficient of variation (CV) was 3.22%-5.64%, the interassay CV was 4.42%-7.25%, and the recovery rate was 93.22%-107.99%. Cross-reactivity (CR) was not observed with bovine, rat, mouse, rabbit, or porcine samples. The developed method showed a good correlation with the N-MID product from Roche. In total, 1069 clinical patient samples were measured using the reagent kit developed in this study.

Abstract
Background The concentration of MTX in blood is often measured quickly and easily by immunoassays. Thus, immunoassays may facilitate the easy determination of the concentration of MTX in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). In this study, we measured methotrexate (MTX) concentrations in the CSF using a high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method intended for analyzing CSF matrices and a chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) method intended for assessing serum and plasma matrices and verified the differences in the results of the two methods. Methods HPLC analysis for MTX in the CSF was performed using a Prominence UFLC system with a C18 column. The HPLC method was validated in accordance with the 2018 FDA guideline. The CLIA method was performed using an ARCHITECT i1000SR system intended for serum and plasma matrices. A total of 47 CSF samples (14 clinical and 33 spiked specimens) were analyzed using the two methods. Results The HPLC method passed the validation criteria. The concentration of MTX in the same sample, determined using the HPLC and CLIA methods, differed proportionally; the percent difference in the concentrations averaged −23.0% (95% confidence interval: −36.9% to −9.1%) as revealed by the Bland‐Altman plot. The relationship between the measured values, evaluated using the Passing‐Bablok regression, was as follows: HPLC = 1.205 × CLIA – 0.024. Conclusion The equation deduced in this study can be used to correct the concentration of MTX measured using the CLIA method.

[PMID: 33034910 PMCID: PMC7891508 DOI: 10.1002/jcla.23615] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2020] [Revised: 08/30/2020] [Accepted: 09/19/2020] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has traditionally been used to detect myeloperoxidase (MPO) and proteinase 3 (PR3) antibodies, although it is time‐consuming and physically demanding. As a novel and highly effective immunoassay, we compared chemiluminescent immunoassay (CIA) with ELISA to verify the application value of CIA in MPO and PR3 antibodies detection. Methods By ELISA and CIA, serum levels of anti‐MPO and anti‐PR3 antibodies were measured in 63 anti‐neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)‐associated vasculitis (AAV) patients (AAV group), including 47 microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) patients and 16 granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) patients, in addition, 68 patients in interference control group (IC group), 19 healthy subjects in healthy control group (HC group). We compared MPO and PR3 antibodies levels and positive rates measured by these two methods among groups. Relationship and coincidence rate between ELISA and CIA were investigated. Diagnostic values for clinical outcomes for MPO and PR3 antibodies were assessed by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve. Results In AAV patients, when detecting anti‐MPO (r = .90) and anti‐PR3 (r = .81), CIA was highly correlated with ELISA, companying with highly total (88.89%, 92.06%, respectively) and positive coincidence rates (84.78%, 77.27%, respectively). In HC group, anti‐PR3 positive rate detected by both immunoassay were 0, anti‐MPO almost were 0, which without statistically significant difference (P = .32). In IC group, the total (76.47%, 58.82, respectively) and positive coincidence rates (48.38%, 30.00%, respectively) of anti‐MPO and anti‐PR3 were the lowest, but the negative coincidence rates reached 100%. By CIA, similar to ELISA, the levels of anti‐MPO were significantly higher both in AAV patients (56.00; [4.40‐235.30]) and MPA patients (98.00; [27.90‐324.70]) compared with either IC group (3.20; [3.20‐18.55) (P < .0001) or HC group (3.20; [3.20‐3.20]) (P < .0001), yielded an area under curve (AUC) of 0.76 for AAV and 0.89 for MPA, the concentration of anti‐PR3 in GPA group (66.65; [24.43‐150.00]) was significantly higher than that in IC group (2.3; [2.3‐10.95]) (P < .0001) and HC group (2.3; [2.3‐2.3]) (P < .0001), with an AUC of 0.92. Conclusion Similar to ELISA, CIA was competent to detect MPO and PR3 antibodies in AAV patients and healthy population, thus distinguish AAV patients from IC group and HC group and effectively diagnose MPA and GPA.
