Sažetak
Plasma-derived blood coagulation factor VIII was analyzed in real time using biosensor technology. Monoclonal antibodies directed against the heavy and against the light chain of factor VIII were immobilized on different carboxymethyl dextran surfaces. Different factor VIII concentrations were injected over the antibody surfaces in parallel and response levels were determined from the dissociation phase at a fixed time after sample injection. Serial dilutions of plasma-derived factor VIII with known concentrations determined by a commercial FVIIIC:Ag ELISA were used as standards. A quantification limit of 0.9 I.U./ml with antibody 530p and 1.5 I.U./ml with antibody 531p was calculated. Intra-assay precision expressed as percent coefficient of variation was below 10% for concentrations above 0.6 I.U./ml. Inter-assay precision for antibody 530p was below 20% for concentrations higher than 0.6 I.U./ml. For 531p, inter-assay precision was below 10% for concentrations higher than 2 I.U./ml. A sensor chip lifetime in respect to regeneration of at least 100 cycles for both antibodies was found. The small sample requirement of 35 μl allows fast analysis of different FVIII products and the use of two monoclonal antibodies directed against two different FVIII domains provides additional information about the integrity of the FVIII molecule.
