Abstract
In this study, we investigated the immunoreactivity of the Technicon Immuno 1 PSA assay, a monoclonal-polyclonal sandwich immunoassay, with free and ACT-complexed PSA. Assay calibrators prepared with free PSA (standard Immuno 1 calibrators) and calibrators consisting of 90% ACT-complexed and 10% free PSA (90:10 calibrators) yielded virtually identical PSA recoveries at all concentrations tested. Concentrations of total PSA at approximately 4 and 10 ng/mL, prepared in varying ratios of free PSA to PSA-ACT complex, recovered from 92-104% at 4 ng/mL and from 98-102% at 10 ng/mL. Additionally, an excellent correlation of serum total PSA values from a panel of 40 prostatic cancer patient samples was obtained using calibration curves generated with the standard Immuno 1 calibrators or the 90:10 calibrators. These results demonstrate that the Technicon Immuno 1 PSA assay measures free and ACT-complexed PSA on an equal molar basis.
