Abstract
The last years, there is a steadily growing demand for methods and materials appropriate to create patterns of biomolecules for bioanalytical applications. Here, a photolithographic method for patterning biomolecules onto a silicon surface coated with a polymeric layer of high protein binding capacity is presented. The patterning process does not affect the polymeric film and the activity of the immobilized onto the surface biomolecules. Therefore, it permits sequential immobilization of different biomolecules on spatially distinct areas on the same solid support. The polymeric layer is based on a commercially available photoresist (AZ5214) that is cured at high temperature in order to provide a stable substrate for creation of protein microarrays by the developed photolithographic process. The photolithographic material consists of a (meth)acrylate copolymer and a sulfonium salt as a photoacid generator, and it is lithographically processed by thermal treatment at temperatures <or=50 degrees C, development with dilute aqueous basic developer solutions and exposure at wavelengths above 300 nm. Following this photolithographic procedure onto the polymeric layer coated silicon surface, protein spots with diameters ranging from 2 to 50 microm were created. The proposed methodology provided good intra-spot homogeneity (CV <or=5%) and inter-spot repeatability (CV <or=5%), as it was determined through epifluorescence microscopy after reaction of the immobilized proteins with their respective fluorescently labeled binding counterparts. Moreover, the polymeric film selected for immobilization of biomolecules presented high protein binding capacity, which was at least three folds higher than that obtained using aminosilanized surfaces. The proposed methodology is expected to facilitate considerably the fabrication of dense protein microarrays for bioanalytical applications.

Abstract
A flow-based immunoassay system using solid-phase particles with high binding capacity was used for semicontinuous, near-real-time, measurement of 17beta-estradiol (E2). The high binding capacity of the solid phase was exploited to enable (i) a quantitative determination of E2 concentration, based on rate of accumulation of fluorescently labeled anti-E2 antibody on the solid phase, and (ii) the use of a single solid phase for more than a dozen competitive binding measurements. The high binding capacity of the solid phase also permitted the immobilization of a second capture antigen. Biotin was immobilized as a second antigen and used to evaluate a biotin anti-biotin system as a control for matrix effects in the E2 immunoassay. In phosphate-buffered saline, E2 could be quantified (in the range of 10-1000 pM) by using either the summation or ratio of the signals from the labeled anti-E2 and anti-biotin antibody in the presence of biotin at a constant concentration. The same referencing system was applied to estimate the matrix effects in selected environmental samples. Matrix effects that inhibited the binding of the anti-E2 antibody to the solid phase led to false positive responses, but these matrix effects could be identified and partially corrected using the response from the anti-biotin antibody.

Abstract
A new tracer conjugate of E2-Biotin, with different spacers, was synthesized at position 3 in the estradiol molecule for first time. Immunoreactivity of the tracer was determined by reacting with the anti-E2 monoclonal antibody. The monoclonal antibodies raised against E2 were characterized for its use in ELISA detection systems of serum E2. The purified antibody has a high affinity and specificity for E2. The antibody and tracer were used for establishing a competitive ELISA for estradiol (E2). The experimental results showed that the dose-response curve of the assay covered a range of 33-20,000 pg/mL (n = 8). The detection limit is 28.3 pg/mL (S/N = 3). The intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation for the assay of serum samples ranged from 5.7 to 13.2% and from 5.3 to 10.6%, respectively. Precoated microtiter plates were dried at 4 degrees C and they were stable for up to 3 months.

Abstract
This report describes a concept in which an immunoassay is used indirectly to quantify a nonantigenic very low molecular weight compound participating in a chemical reaction with a haptenic reporter. The detection limit of each reagent is, therefore, governed only by the affinity of the antibodies toward the reporter. Fluoride was used as a model, and silylated estradiol was used as a reporter. Upon silylation with N-O-bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA) or N-O-bis(dimethylterbutylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide (MTBSTFA), estradiol is no longer recognized by antibodies specific to estradiol. After reaction with hydrofluoric acid (HF) or fluoride salts (KF, CsF, NaF), its immunoreactivity is restored, and native estradiol is formed and is detected by immunoassay. The level of synthesized estradiol is dependent on the concentration of fluoride. A fluoride detection limit of 0.3 microg/L (15 nM) is obtained. Potential interference with other acids has been eliminated by choosing the silyl group (trimethylsilyl vs tert-butyldimethylsilyl) and by selecting optimal reaction conditions for the desilylation. The method has been applied to the detection of fluoride salts in natural waters (range 0.28-9.0 mg/L) and in an atmosphere artificially contaminated with HF between 8 and 160 microg/m(3) in the parts-per-billion range. This indirect immunoassay combines simplicity and high sensitivity and, therefore, can be used in field monitoring. Finally, the extension of the concept to other chemicals is discussed.

Abstract
Recent publications describing new elegant approaches to assay small analytes using noncompetitive format were briefly reviewed. Among these methods, we have developed a new protocol, named SPIE-IA, which involves a cross-linking step achieved using chemical hombifunctional reagents, UV irradiation or free radicals. This new method proved to be useful to detect naturally occurring analyte/antibody complexes or to protect the analytes against degradation by peptidases. On the other hand, SPIE-IA could allow to study the adverse biological effects of UV and some aspects of free radical chemistry or to evaluate the antioxidant activity of molecules.

Abstract
We describe a new strategy for the preparation of catalytic antibodies based on a two-step procedure. Firstly, monoclonal antibodies are selected only if displaying the following binding features: binding both the substrate and a reactive group in such a way that the two groups are in a reactive position towards each other. Secondly, the selected monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are chemically engineered by covalently binding the reactive group into the binding pocket of the antibody. Using previously isolated monoclonal antibodies, we have focused our studies on the control of this second step.

Abstract
A flow-based immunoassay that uses microspheres as the solid phase accomplished the theoretical limit of detectability achievable with the antibody. An equilibrated mixture of anti-estriol monoclonal antibody and estriol was briefly exposed to a bead pack containing immobilized estriol in a flow cell. A small portion of free antibody was separated rapidly from the mixture by binding it to immobilized hormone, but the antibody-hormone complex was kinetically excluded from binding. This rapid separation prevented shift in the equilibrium of the liquid phase binding. Signals were generated by labeling the separated antibodies on the beads with a Cy5-conjugated antispecies secondary antibody. By labeling after the separation step, perturbing the liquid-phase or solid-phase binding was prevented. This assay allowed the reduction of the concentration of primary antibody by continuously accumulating free antibody onto the beads prior to quantification and, thus, offered ideal conditions to achieve theoretical limits of detectability. The optimum achievable dynamic range of this immunoassay was 4-300 pM. Because the proportion of free anti-estriol antibody in the mixture was controlled by the Kd of the antibody-estriol interaction, when the concentration of the antibody was below the Kd, the smallest detectable estriol concentration approached the theoretical limit of detectability achievable with this antibody.

Abstract
AbstractBackground: We wished to develop an enzyme immunometric assay for 17β-estradiol (E2) in human serum using solid-phase immobilized epitope immunoassay (SPIE-IA) technology and free radical chemistry.Methods: We used an anti-estradiol monoclonal antibody as capture antibody and Fenton-like reagents to cross-link it to E2. The same antibody, labeled with acetylcholinesterase, was used for detection. Serum was diluted 10-fold before assay.Results: After correction by the dilution factor, the detection limit was 5 ng/L for human serum and intra- and interassay CVs were <7% and 15%, respectively, at concentrations of 169-2845 ng/L. No cross-reactivity was seen with other natural steroids. In comparison with a competitive commercial RIA performed on 88 undiluted human sera, the slope (SD) of the regression line was 1.05 (± 0.02) and the intercept was 47 (±27) ng/L (Sy|x = 186 ng/L) at concentrations of 20–5000 ng/L (r2 = 0.97).Conclusions: The use of Fenton-like chemistry in SPIE-IA technology allows a sensitive measurement of E2 in human serum and could be a new approach for the development of sensitive immunoassays.

Abstract
We have developed a new enzyme immunometric assay for angiotensin II (AII) based on SPIE-IA technology (solid-phase immobilized epitope-immunoassay). A monoclonal antibody with optimal properties (mAb3 131) was selected from a series of 19 anti-AII mAbs. The mAb had to be purified from ascitic fluid in a specific manner in order to remove endogenous AII from the antibody-binding sites. We established a sensitive (minimum detectable concentration 0.5 pg/ml) and precise (CV below 15% in the 2-100 pg/ml range) SPIE-IA. Using different AII-related peptides, we observed that this new assay has a specificity profile that compares favourably with the corresponding competitive immunoassay. We have used the assay to measure AII in 42 plasma samples, and demonstrated a good correlation with values obtained using a commercial radioimmunoassay. Assay specificity was supported by HPLC fractionation experiments, confirming the absence of interference induced by endogenous AII-related products.
