Abstract
Hapten immunoassays have found extensive application across various domains such as disease diagnostics, environmental monitoring, as well as the evaluation of food and pharmaceutical safety. These techniques traditionally rely on competitive assay formats and often face challenges with sensitivity and specificity. This review focuses on the emergent noncompetitive immunoassay technologies that promise to transcend these limitations through innovative approaches. Noncompetitive immunoassays, leveraging novel elements such as anti-idiotype antibodies, anti-immunocomplex (IC) antibodies, and the strategic use of nanomaterial-enhanced signal detection, are setting new benchmarks for analytical performance. These advancements not only enhance the detection capabilities but also significantly improve specificity inherent in traditional methods. Moreover, the integration of novel materials and binding reagents in these assays offers substantial improvements in assay dynamics, providing faster, more accurate, and reliable results. This review consolidates the latest methodologies and their applications, underlining the transformative impact of noncompetitive technologies in the sensitive detection of haptens across various fields.

Abstract
Objectives Soluble B-Cell Maturation Antigen (sBCMA) is a degradation product of plasma cell-bound BCMA found in serum. Serum sBCMA concentrations correlate with bone marrow plasma cellularity, making it an attractive biomarker for monitoring plasma cell disorders, such as multiple myeloma. Here we evaluated the automated BCMA immunoassay for the ProteinSimple ELLA, for the analysis of sBCMA. Design & methods Inter and intra-run precision was assessed through replicate sBCMA measurements at 3 different concentration levels. Linearity was determined through serial dilution of a high sBMCA patient sample. Accuracy was assessed through split specimen analysis on two separate lots of reagents. Stability was assessed at 3 temperature levels over 14 days. Cross-reactivity was assessed on BCMA targeting and non-targeting chemotherapeutics. A reference range was established through the analysis of 146 healthy donor samples. The effect of endogenous interferents was assessed through spiking and recovery studies. Results Inter and intra-run precision studies afforded CVs of <10% at all three concentration levels. Analytical measurement range was confirmed from 0.1 to 7 ng/mL. Accuracy studies afforded a slope of 0.976, intercept of 1.22, R2 of 0.996. Assayed sBCMA values were unaffected by endogenous interferents and non-BMCA targeting antibodies. BCMA targeting therapeutics negatively affected assayed sBCMA concentrations. The reference range was established at 19-58 ng/mL sBCMA is analytically stable. Conclusions The ProteinSimple ELLA sBCMA assay shows acceptable performance for the clinical assessment of sBCMA. The assay was highly affected by BCMA targeting therapeutics, thereby patients undergoing this therapy should not have their sBCMA levels assessed by this method.

Abstract
Ultrasensitive sandwich immunoassays for detecting the small molecule semicarbazide (SEM) were developed based on derivatization. Several SEM derivatizing agents were synthesized by linking o-nitrobenzaldehyde (NBA) and biotin with dihydroxyalkanes (different lengths), which were then used to evaluate the distance effect of two epitopes. Sandwich ELISA for SEM derivatives was developed using an anti-SEM-NBA antibody and horseradish peroxidase-labeled avidin or anti-biotin antibody as a secondary conjugate. The advantageous distances of the two epitopes under the double-antibody sandwich and antibody-avidin sandwich modes were ≥12 and ≥13 Å, respectively. Under the distances, the sensitivities of the sandwich ELISA were no lower than those of competitive ELISA. The obtained optimal EC50 values were 11.2 pg/mL (double-antibody sandwich with the epitope distance ≥16 Å) and 7.3 pg/mL (antibody-avidin sandwich with the epitope distance ≥17 Å). Compared with competitive ELISA, the developed method achieved a 30-fold improvement in sensitivity, with simpler aquatic product pretreatment.

Abstract
This study sought to develop a specific and sensitive sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for pharmacokinetic studies of dasatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Anti-dasatinib antibodies were obtained from mice or rabbits by using two partial structures of dasatinib as haptens: 2-amino-N-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-thiazole-5-carboxamide and 2-{4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazinyl}-isonicotinic acid. The best combination of two antibodies for sandwich ELISA of dasatinib was determined using four anti-dasatinib antibodies derived from mice and rabbits. Using two dasatinib-specific rabbit antibodies, we successfully developed an ultra-specific and highly sensitive sandwich ELISA that is hardly affected by the main metabolite of dasatinib. The sandwich ELISA showed a linear detection range from 320 pg/mL to 1000 ng/mL. Serum dasatinib concentrations lower than 320 pg/mL were reproducibly measurable using the sandwich ELISA. The ELISA was specific to dasatinib and there were no cross-reactivities with the major metabolites 4'-hydroxy dasatinib and dasatinib carboxylic acid. The developed sandwich ELISA will be a valuable tool for pharmacokinetic studies of dasatinib. Furthermore, this study revealed that rabbit antibodies can sandwich drug molecules of a smaller size than mouse antibodies in sandwich ELISA.

Abstract
The pursuit of the limit between dimensionalities is a scientific goal with high applicability. Sandwich immunoassay, usually based on two antibodies binding two epitopes, is one of the most popular mainstay tools in both academic and industrial fields. Herein, we determined and evaluated the minimum distance of two epitopes in sandwich immunoassays for small molecules. Briefly, nine model analytes comprising two hapten epitopes, that is, melamine (MEL) and p-nitroaniline (NIA), were designed by increasing the linear chain linkers brick by brick. Two groups of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were produced with different recognition properties toward MEL and NIA using 12 new haptens with different spacer arms. The results indicated that two epitopes of the analyte with a distance of only 2.4 Å could be simultaneously bound by two mAbs, which is the known limit of epitope distance in sandwich immunoassays thus far. We further found that an epitope distance of below 8.8 Å for the analyte generally induces noticeable steric hindrance of antibodies, preventing a sandwich immunoassay with high probability. These observations were investigated and evaluated by molecular docking, molecular dynamics, and surface plasmon resonance and using model and real analytes. Altogether, we determined the minimum distance of two epitopes and explored the molecular mechanism of the antibody-analyte-antibody ternary complex in sandwich immunoassays, providing a theoretical basis for hapten design, antibody discovery and development, and sandwich immunoassay establishment for small molecules.

Abstract
Abundant immunological assays currently exist for detecting pathogens and identifying infected individuals, making detection of diseases at early stages integral to preventing their spread, together with the consequent emergence of global health crises. Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) is a test characterized by simplicity, low cost, and quick results. Furthermore, LFIA testing does not need well-trained individuals or laboratory settings. Therefore, it has been serving as an attractive tool that has been extensively used during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Here, the LFIA strip's available formats, reporter systems, components, and preparation are discussed. Moreover, this review provides an overview of the current LFIAs in detecting infectious viral antigens and humoral responses to viral infections.

Abstract
Phytoproducts are involved in various fields of industry. Small-molecule (Mw < 900 Da) organic compounds can be used to indicate the quality of plant samples in the perspective of efficacy by measuring the necessary secondary metabolites and in the perspective of safety by measuring the adulterant level of toxic compounds. The development of reliable detection methods for these compounds in such a complicated matrix is challenging. The lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) is one of the immunoassays well-known for its simplicity, portability, and rapidity. In this review, the general principle, components, format, and application of the LFA for phytoproducts are discussed.

Abstract
The development of an immunoassay for a low-molecular-weight drug first requires the identification of specific antibodies that do not cross-react with the drug's metabolites. If two antibodies can simultaneously recognize the entire structure of the drug, we can then utilize them to establish an ultra-specific sandwich ELISA, free from interference due to the metabolic products of the drug. This paper reports an ultra-specific and sensitive sandwich ELISA for determination of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib using two anti-imatinib antibodies. The anti-imatinib antibodies were obtained by two partial structures of imatinib as haptens (2-(5-amino-2-methylanilino)-4-(3-pyridyl)pyrimidine and 4-{(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-methyl}-benzoate). Under optimized conditions, this sandwich ELISA shows a linear detection range from 64 pg mL-1 to 8 ng mL-1, and a limit of detection of approximately 64 pg mL-1 for 100-μL samples. The ELISA is specific to imatinib and while there was no cross-reactivity with the major metabolite N-desmethyl-imatinib, slight cross-reactivity was found with metabolite pyridine-N-oxide-imatinib. This assay demonstrated significantly lower cross-reactivity with metabolites than competitive ELISAs. Using this assay, drug levels were easily measured in rat blood after oral administration of imatinib via a single dose of 30 mg kg-1 or 100 mg kg-1. The levels in rat serum measured by this ELISA were comparable with those measured by HPLC, and there was a strong correlation between the values determined by the two methods (y = 0.983x + 0.081, R2 = 0.948). Thus, we have successfully developed the first specific and sensitive sandwich ELISA for imatinib using two anti-imatinib antibodies. This sandwich ELISA will be a valuable tool for therapeutic drug monitoring and pharmacokinetic studies of imatinib.

Abstract
Among the currently used immunoassay techniques, sandwich ELISA exhibits higher specificity, lower cross-reactivity, and a wider working range compared to the corresponding competitive assays. However, it is difficult to obtain a pair of antibodies that can simultaneously bind to two epitopes of a molecule with a molecular weight of less than 1000 Da. Naringin (Nar) is a flavonoid with a molecular mass of 580 Da. The main aim of this study was to develop a sandwich ELISA for detecting Nar. Two hybridomas secreting anti-Nar monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were produced by fusing splenocytes from a mouse immunised against Nar-bovine serum albumin (BSA) conjugated with a hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine (HAT)-sensitive mouse myeloma cell line; a sandwich ELISA for detecting Nar was developed using these two well-characterised anti-Nar mAbs. The performance of the sandwich assay was further evaluated by limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), recovery, and interference analyses. A dose-response curve to Nar was obtained with an LOD of 6.78 ng mL(-1) and an LOQ of 13.47 ng mL(-1). The inter-assay and intra-assay coefficients of variation were 4.32% and 7.48%, respectively. The recovery rate of Nar from concentrated Fructus aurantii granules was 83.63%. A high correlation was obtained between HPLC and sandwich ELISA. These results demonstrate that the sandwich ELISA method has higher specificity for Nar than indirect competitive ELISA.

Mini-ISES identifies promising carbafructopyranose-based salens for asymmetric catalysis: Tuning ligand shape via the anomeric effect. SCIENCE ADVANCES 2015; 1:e1500066. [PMID: 26501130 PMCID: PMC4613784 DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.1500066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2015] [Accepted: 05/11/2015] [Indexed: 05/24/2023]
Abstract
This study introduces new methods of screening for and tuning chiral space and in so doing identifies a promising set of chiral ligands for asymmetric synthesis. The carbafructopyranosyl-1,2-diamine(s) and salens constructed therefrom are particularly compelling. It is shown that by removing the native anomeric effect in this ligand family, one can tune chiral ligand shape and improve chiral bias. This concept is demonstrated by a combination of (i) x-ray crystallographic structure determination, (ii) assessment of catalytic performance, and (iii) consideration of the anomeric effect and its underlying dipolar basis. The title ligands were identified by a new mini version of the in situ enzymatic screening (ISES) procedure through which catalyst-ligand combinations are screened in parallel, and information on relative rate and enantioselectivity is obtained in real time, without the need to quench reactions or draw aliquots. Mini-ISES brings the technique into the nanomole regime (200 to 350 nmol catalyst/20 μml organic volume) commensurate with emerging trends in reaction development/process chemistry. The best-performing β-d-carbafructopyranosyl-1,2-diamine-derived salen ligand discovered here outperforms the best known organometallic and enzymatic catalysts for the hydrolytic kinetic resolution of 3-phenylpropylene oxide, one of several substrates examined for which the ligand is "matched." This ligand scaffold defines a new swath of chiral space, and anomeric effect tunability defines a new concept in shaping that chiral space. Both this ligand set and the anomeric shape-tuning concept are expected to find broad application, given the value of chiral 1,2-diamines and salens constructed from these in asymmetric catalysis.

Abstract
A competitive chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay (CLEIA) method for porcine β-defensin-2 (pBD-2) detection in transgenic mice was established. Several factors that affect detection, including luminol, p-iodophenol and hydrogen peroxide concentrations, as well as pH, were studied and optimized. The linear range of the proposed method for pBD-2 detection under optimal conditions was 0.05-80 ng/mL with a correlation coefficient of 0.9960. Eleven detections of a 30 ng/mL pBD-2 standard sample were performed. Reproducible results were obtained with a relative standard deviation of 3.94%. The limit of detection of the method for pBD-2 was 3.5 pg/mL (3σ). The proposed method was applied to determine pBD-2 expression levels in the tissues of pBD-2 transgenic mice, and compared with LC-MS/MS and quantitative real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. This suggests that the CLEIA can be used as a valuable method to detect and quantify pBD-2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although detection of natural haptens by antihapten antibodies in sandwich assay format has the theoretical advantages of high analytical specificity and sensitivity, this type of assay has not been reported because of the seemingly insurmountable task of avoiding steric hindrance between the 2 bindings. This is especially true for ring-structured hydrophobic haptens. The macrolide drug tacrolimus (FK506, Prograf®, 804 Da) is such a hapten. Here we show the detection of tacrolimus using 2 antitacrolimus monoclonal antibodies in a sandwich assay. METHODS Both antibodies were developed by use of an intact tacrolimus molecule covalently linked to a carrier protein but via 2 different positions separated by 10 carbon atoms. Epitope analysis based on drug analog binding was used to show no overlap between the binding sites of the 2 antibodies, indicating the 10-carbon separation resulted in 2 distinct epitopes. The distinct epitopes suggested that the drug might be approachable by the antibodies from 2 separate directions, which predicted simultaneous binding as in sandwich formation. RESULTS This prediction was confirmed in sandwich ELISA and affinity column-mediated immunoassay formats. The assay demonstrated good imprecision and significantly lower metabolite cross-reactivity than competitive assay counterparts. Comparison with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) using 55 whole-blood samples from transplant patients with tacrolimus concentrations ranging from 0.9 to 29.5 ng/mL showed a linear regression: sandwich = 0.99 × LC-MS/MS + 0.10 ng/mL, r = 0.991, Sy|x = 1.08 ng/mL. CONCLUSIONS This work demonstrates that a highly specific sandwich assay using 2 antihapten antibodies is feasible for the measurement of a hapten drug.

Abstract
Pulsed galvanostatic control of ion fluxes across polymeric membrane ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) is an emerging field for potentiometric sensing. Herein we report a novel potentiometric enzyme immunoassay based on current-controlled release of an enzyme substrate, which eliminates the addition of marker ions in the sample solution. In this method, the carboxylated poly(vinyl chloride) matrix at the outer layer of the ISE membrane is employed to attach a primary antibody. A sandwich immunoassay with an alkaline phosphatase labeled antibody (ALP-Ab) as the reporter is used for the determination of human IgG (as a model protein). The large difference between the lipophilicity of the substrate ion and that of the product ion allows p-nitrophenyl phosphate to be used as the enzyme substrate for potentiometric immunosensors. After the immunoreactions, the captured ALP-Ab catalyzes the hydrolysis of the substrate ions released at the sample-membrane interface by using the pulsed galvanostatic technique. This process can be potentiometrically determined by measuring the open circuit potential of the ISE. Under optimal conditions, the potential response of the proposed immunosensor is proportional to the concentration of human IgG in the range of 50-1000 ng/mL with a detection limit of 30 ng/mL (3σ). Owing to simplicity and independence of sample volume and sample turbidity, the proposed potentiometric immunoassay offers a viable alternative to those based on optical absorbance.

Abstract
Here, we describe a novel method for L-phenylalanine analysis using a sandwich-type immunometric assay approach for use as a new method for amino acid analysis. To overcome difficulties of the preparation of high-affinity and selectivity monoclonal antibodies against L-phenylalanine and the inability to use sandwich-type immunometric assays due to their small molecular weight, three procedures were examined. First, amino groups of L-phenylalanine were modified by "N-Fmoc-L-cysteine" (FC) residues and the derivative (FC-Phe) was used as a hapten. Immunization of mice with bovine serum albumin/FC-Phe conjugate successfully yielded specific monoclonal anti-FC-Phe antibodies. Second, a new derivatization reagent, "biotin linker conjugate of FC-Phe N-succinimidyl ester" (FC(Biotin)-NHS), was synthesized to convert L-phenylalanine to FC-(Biotin)-Phe as a hapten structure. The biotin moiety linked to the thiol group of cysteine formed a second binding site for streptavidin/horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugates for optical detection. Third, a new semi-sandwich-type immunometric assay was established using pre-derivatized L-phenylalanine, the monoclonal anti-FC-Phe antibody, and streptavidin/HRP conjugate (without second antibody). Using the new "semi-sandwich" immunometric assay system, a detection limit of 35 nM (60 amol per analysis) and a detection range of 0.1-20 μM were attained using a standard L-phenylalanine solution. Rat plasma samples were analyzed to test reliability. Intra-day assay precision was within 6% of the coefficient of variation; inter-day variation was 0.1%. The recovery rates were from 92.4 to 123.7%. This is the first report of the quantitative determination of L-phenylalanine using a reliable semi-sandwich immunometric assay approach and will be applicable to the quantitative determination of other amino acids.

Abstract
We propose a new type of photosensitive biosensor with a CMOS compatible Si photodiode integrated circuit, for the high-sensitive detection of small mycotoxin molecules requiring competitive assay approach. In this work, a photodiode is connected to the gate of a field effect transistor (FET) so that the open circuit voltage (V(OC)) of the illuminated photodiode is transferred into the drain/source current (I(DS)) of the FET. The sensing scheme employs competitive binding of toxin molecules (within the sample solution) and toxin-BSA conjugates (immobilized on the photodiode surface) with Au-nanoparticle-labeled antibodies, followed by silver enhancement to generate opaque structures on the photodiode surface. By utilizing the non-linear dependence of the V(OC) on the light intensity, we can maintain a sufficiently high signal resolution at low toxin concentrations (with most of the incident light blocked) for the competitive assay. By monitoring the I(DS) of the FET whose gate is driven by the V(OC), quantitative detection of Aflatoxin B1 has been achieved in the range of 0-15ppb.
