- the antibody is immobilized on the solid phase.
- the antibody can be the labeled species, while an analyte derivative is immobilized to a solid phase, as described by Miles, L.E.M et al. ( 1968) Nature, 219: 186- 180 and others. Since the production of mouse monoclonal antibodies became practical in 1975, assay architectures with labeled antibodies became more attractive because ofthe greater ease with which monoclonals can be obtained reproducibly and in large quantities.
- purifying and labeling monoclonal antibodies is relatively easy, since it does not require affinity purification, a step that is essential for labeling polyclonal antibodies. Also, it is often difficult to conjugate small molecular mass analytes (molecule with formula weight under about 1000 daltons) to signal- generating molecules and to purify the desired product afterwards.
- competitive immunoassay formats utilizing solid phase-immobilized analyte and liquid phase labeled antibody give higher sensitivity due to the higher affinity of liquid phase antibody.
- Coupling of antibodies and other specific binders, which are biological macromolecules, to the solid phase is relatively easy, since both the solid phase and the macromolecules are soluble in aqueous medium.
- the coupling can be adso ⁇ tive or by covalent bonds via the use of cross-linking agents such as glutaraldehyde.
- the reaction can be done in one or more steps; however, bringing the solid phase in contact with the macromolecule is carried out in a water solution, and the uncoupled fraction ofthe macromolecules can be easily washed out with aqueous media in order to avoid the presence of residual uncoupled specific binder in the assay reagent. If the uncoupled protein is not removed, it will leak and lead to a functionally unstable solid phase.
- Antibodies, other proteins, macromolecules and polymers are attached to the solid support via several attachment points, which ensures a very stable immobilization, and consequently low leaking.
- the small molecule is first dissolved in a small volume of organic solvent, which is then added to an aqueous solution of a protein or another water soluble macromolecule in a large volume of aqueous medium.
- the conjugation reaction is carried out in the presence of a large amount of water.
- the purification ofthe macromolecule-small molecule conjugate and its coupling to the solid support are carried out in a predominantly aqueous medium.
- the first approach cannot be used when there is a high ratio of hapten to macromolecule.
- the method is also lengthy and requires extensive conjugate purification.
- some ofthe precipitated small ligand cannot be removed from the desired conjugate, and this leads to a high level of small molecule leakage into the assay reagent. This causes a decrease of binding, as was shown by Piran U and Stastny M, US Patent No.5, 196,349 (1993), thus compromising assay performance.
- the second approach involves direct reaction ofthe small molecule with the solid phase in either aqueous or organic media or a combination thereof.
- the third approach involves first attaching a hydrophilic macromolecule to the support and then reacting the solid support-macromolecule complex with the small ligand in a predominantly aqueous medium and a small amount of organic solvent (necessary to keep the hapten at least partially in solution), as described by Wilchek, M. and Miron T. (1974) in Methods in Enzymology, Jakoby, W.B. and Wilchek, M. Eds., 34:72-77; and Chang, S.C.S. et al (1989) US Patent No.

- An improved method for immobilization of small, relatively hydrophobic ligands to solid phases is described herein.
- This method is useful for use as an affinity separation support in immunoassays for hapten analytes, affinity chromatography for purification of macromolecules, screening of specific binders produced by hybridoma or recombinant DNA techniques, and "panning" procedures in phage display and other protein engineering techniques.
- the method is faster, more convenient, generates less biohazardous waste, allows use of higher ligand concentrations during the conjugation, and leads to improved performance and stability ofthe solid phase-small molecule preparations.
- the solid phase is first coupled to a protein, a polyaminoacid or another water soluble macromolecule. This generates a spacer that is firmly attached to the solid support via multiple bonds. Immobilization of proteins or other macromolecules can be done in an aqueous medium either by adsorption, but preferably by covalent bonding by reagents such as glutaraldehyde, carbodiimide and many others. The aqueous medium is then removed, and the solid phase is washed by an organic solvent to remove traces of water, thus increasing the solubility ofthe hydrophobic small molecule. In addition the removal of water reduces interference with the chemistry of coupling ofthe small molecule to the solid phase-macromolecule complex when the reaction is sensitive to water.
- the preferred organic solvent is an aliphatic alcohol (with or without small amounts of other organic solvents or water).
- the small ligand is dissolved in the aliphatic alcohol, mixed and reacted with the solid phase in an aliphatic alcohol.
- the coupling is more efficient and predictable because the hydrophobic small ligand is in true solution even at high concentrations; in addition, hydrolysis ofthe activated ligand or activated solid support is in many cases avoided.
- Solid phase- immobilized macromolecules also undergo denaturation: applicant found that immobilized antibodies completely lose their antigen binding activity even by exposure to methanol or ethanol for a few minutes at 25C. However, applicants unexpectedly found that these alcohols do not cause deterioration ofthe functionality ofthe solid phase or the spacer macromolecule. Surprisingly, the method allowed the use of very high ligand/protein molar ratios without causing formation of precipitates of conjugate or ligand.
- the unreacted small ligand is highly soluble in alcohols, it is efficiently removed by the organic washes, and by the time the solid phase is immersed or additionally washed with an aqueous medium, virtually no unreacted small ligand is present in the solid phase preparation.
- the preferred organic solvent for both the coupling reaction and the washes is an alcohol, such as methanol, ethanol or propanol, although higher molecular mass aliphatic alcohols may be used.
- many solid phase- macromolecule spacer complexes are compatible with dioxane, DMF and organic solvents of higher hydrophobicity, such as hydrocarbons.
- the organic medium can also contain a small amount of other organic solvents, but preferably less than about 10% (v/v).
- 95% ethanol which contains 5% water may be used.
- 95% ethanol is a readily available, inexpensive and relatively non ⁇ toxic solvent.
- the medium should be predominantly organic, with up to about 10% v/v water.
- the examples shown herein include small ligands that are extremely hydrophobic and are haptens (triiodothyronine, diiodothyronine and pregnenolone). Also shown is an example involving the moderately hydrophobic hapten estradiol. We also successfully used the method for several other steroids, as well as for immobilizing the slightly hydrophobic haptens melatonin, serotonin and their analogs. Thus, the present invention can be applied to haptens of varying degrees of hydrophobicity or water solubility.
- haptens included in the examples triiodothyronine (T3), estradiol, pregnenolone, and diiodotyronine (T2), were all pre-activated through the endogenous or grafted carboxyl group ofthe hapten by conjugating it to N- hydroxyl succinimide via dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) to form a N-hydroxyl succinimidyl (NHS) compound with a generic chemical form shown below : Hapten
- this NHS-hapten can be stored in dry form in a freezer with good stability until used. In some experiments the coupling was successful even though the unreacted DCC and by-products of the activation reaction were not removed. Many other methods of activation ofthe hapten can be used.
- the solid phase can be activated instead.
- the chemistry used for immobilization may involve an active ester, maleimide, sulfhydryl or one of many other chemistries known in the art. Many such chemistries are described in Dean PDG et al. Eds. “Affinity Chromatography, a Practical Approach” IRL Press, Oxford/Washington DC ( 1985) and in Wong SS “Chemistry of Protein Conjugation and Cross Linking” CRC Press Inc. ( 1991).
- the solid phases in some examples are paramagnetic particles made of iron oxide coated with polymerized amino-silane. Also included are examples using controlled pore glass particles.
- the method described herein is suitable to these and any other solid support such as polystyrene particles, magnetizable latex particles, microtitre plates, test tubes, petri dishes, agarose, cellulose, dextran, silica, silica gel, nylon, chitin, polyacrylamide, nitrocellulose and many other types of solid phases from natural or synthetic origin.
- the solid phase can be particulate, extended surface or porous.
- the preferred solid phases for immunoassays are paramagnetic particles, magnetizable latex particles, controlled pore glass and latex particles; the preferred solid phases for affinity chromatography are agarose and controlled pore glass; the preferred solid phases for panning are petri dishes and magnetizable latex particles.
- Proteins and other polymers of biosynthetic or synthetic origins can be used as a macromolecular coating ofthe solid phase and serve as spacers to which small ligands are then attached in an organic medium.
- the macromolecule can be bovine gamma globulin (BGG), rabbit gamma globulin, bovine serum albumin (BSA), ovalbumin, gelatin, thyroglobulin, polylysine or any other polymer with a molecular mass of more than about 5000 daltons. They can be used alone or in mixtures.
- BGG bovine gamma globulin
- BSA bovine serum albumin
- ovalbumin ovalbumin
- gelatin thyroglobulin
- polylysine or any other polymer with a molecular mass of more than about 5000 daltons can be used alone or in mixtures.
- the most preferred macromolecule is BGG.
- the preferred embodiment includes a step of covalent or adsorptive immobilization of protein or another macromolecule followed by hapten conjugation.
- the most preferred embodiment involves covalent immobilization using glutaraldehyde as a cross-linker.
- the NHS-hapten was typically dissolved in dimethylformamide (DMF), then diluted in anhydrous methanol to a designated concentration and a trace amount of triethylamine was added. Protein-coated solid phases were prewashed with anhydrous methanol before they were reacted with the NHS- activated hapten.
- the reaction usually took place at room temperature for time periods of between one and 20 hours; however, in two examples the reaction was found to be completed in 20 minutes. Thus the reaction time is expected to range from less than about 1 hour up to greater than about 20 hours, depending upon the particular ligand, spacer, organic phase and the chemistry of activation.
- the preferable method utilizes organic solvent in both the immobilization and the wash steps.
- a predominantly organic medium in only the immobilization step or the wash step following immobilization.
- This solid phase was found to be effective and stable in a competitive chemiluminometric immunoassay of digitoxin using DMAE-anti-digitoxin monoclonal antibody in the ACS: 180 instrument.
- Bovine gamma globulin BGG was immobilized on controlled pore glass (CPG) containing surface amino-silane as described by Piran U. et al. (1995) US Patent No. 5,445,936.
- CPG-BGG 100 mg, containing about 10 mg of immobilized BGG was centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 10 min to sediment the particles. The supernatant aqueous medium was decanted and the sediment was resuspended in 10 ml anhydrous methanol and rocked gently for 10 min.
- T2 L-3,5-diiodothyronine
- T2 was coupled to the CPG-BGG by adding to the suspension 10 mg of NHS- activated N-hemisuccinate methyl ester of T2 (in 0.7 ml DMF; this represents a molar ratio of T2/BGG of about 200) followed by 20 hours incubation at about 25C with gentle rocking.
- the particles were centrifuged and washed three times with 10 ml methanol, followed by two washes with 10 mM sodium phosphate buffer pH 7.4. The particles were then washed twice with PBS/BSA (50 mM sodium phosphate, 100 mM sodium chloride, 1 mM EDTA, 0.2 g/L sodium azide and 1 g/L bovine serum albumin, pH 7.4) and diluted in this buffer to concentration of 10 mg CPG-BGG-T2 per ml. T2 was also immobilized directly onto the amino-silane groups ofthe CPG (without BGG spacer) in an identical procedure, as a control reagent designed to verify the advantage of using a macromolecular spacer (See results in Example 3).
- PBS/BSA 50 mM sodium phosphate, 100 mM sodium chloride, 1 mM EDTA, 0.2 g/L sodium azide and 1 g/L bovine serum albumin, pH 7.4
- T2 was also immobil
- a monoclonal anti-T3 was prepared and labeled with an acridinium ester (DMAE) as described by Piran et al. US Patent No. 5,445,936 (1995).
- the labeled antibody was affinity purified by incubating it with 1 mg CPG-BGG-T2 from example 1 for 1 hour and then filtering the suspension with an disposable syringe filter with cellulose acetate pore size of 0.2 micron (Corning Glass Works, Corning NY).
- the particles were washed with PBS/BSA by passing 10 ml of buffer through the filter, and the specifically bound antibody was then eluted by 0.1 M glycine buffer at pH 2.5 and was immediately neutralized by 0.1 M sodium phosphate buffer at pH 8.
- Example 3 Stability of CPG-BGG-T2 and CPG-T2 compared.
- the solid supports prepared in Example 1 were subjected to an accelerated stability test. Both solid phases were diluted to 1 mg/ml in PBS/BSA buffer and incubated at 4C and 37C for 7 days. They were then brought to about 25C and incubated with the affinity purified DMAE-anti-T3 from Example 2 for 10 min, followed by centrifugation and measurement ofthe DMAE chemiluminescence remaining in the supernatant. Both solid phases bound 98% ofthe DMAE-anti-T3 after storage at 4C; however, after 7 days storage at 37C CPG-T2 bound only 83%, while CPG-BGG-T2 bound 94%. Thus, the results show that the method of the present invention is compatible with stabilization of ligand by a protein spacer.
- Monoclonal anti-T4 was prepared and labeled with DMAE as described in Piran U and Stastny M, US Patent No. 5,196,349 (1993).
- Anti-DMAE monoclonal was prepared and immobilized on paramagnetic particles (PMP) as described by Piran U et al., US Patent No.5,445,936 (1995).
- PMP paramagnetic particles
- T3 was coupled to CPG-BGG by the method ofthe instant invention in methanol, essentially as described for T2 in example 1 , except that the activated hapten was the NHS-activated N-methyl ester of L-T3.
- the DMAE-labeled anti-T4 was affinity purified using CPG-BGG-T3 as the solid support, essentially as described for the affinity purification of DMAE- anti-T3 in Example 2.
- An aliquot ofthe affinity purified antibody was incubated with 1 mg CPG-BGG-T3 in 1 ml PBS/BSA for 10 min at about 25C.
- the reaction mixture was centrifuged for 10 min at 2000 rpm to sediment the CPG, and a 0.01 mL aliquote of supernatant was taken for chemiluminescence measurement. More than 99% ofthe labeled antibody was found to bind to CPG-BGG-T3.
- the sample probe delivered 0.05 ml human-serum based calibrator, reagent probe 1 delivered 0.1 ml labeled anti-T4 in buffer containing, per liter, 20 mmole sodium barbital, 150 mmole sodium chloride, 1 mmole EDTA, 1 g BSA and 1.5 g BGG at pH 8.5.
- reagent probe 2 delivered 0.25 mg CPG-BGG-T3 in 0.1 ml PBS/BSA
- 2.5 min reagent probe 3 delivered 0.05 mg PMP-anti-DMAE in 0.1 ml PBS/BSA.
- Magnetic separation, wash steps and chemiluminescent readout were carried out by the instrument as described by Piran U et al. US Patent No. 5,445,936 (1995).
- the resulting calibration curve is shown in Fig. 2, demonstrating the utility ofthe CPG-BGG-T3 prepared by the new method in the assay.
- PMP-BGG was prepared essentially as described for immobilizing various other proteins by Piran U and Stastny M, US Patent No. 5,196,349 (1993). Five hundred milligrams of PMP-BGG were washed once with 25 ml of 10 mM sodium phosphate buffer pH 7.4, then five times with 25 ml of anhydrous methanol. The supernatant was removed after each wash by separating magnetizable particles with a magnet. A stock solution of NHS-activated 6- carboxymethyl oxime estradiol in 100% DMF was prepared at concentration of 5.7 mg/ml. The stock solution was diluted 10-fold with methanol containing 23% DMF.
- Example 3 After the fifth methanol wash the PMP-BGG-estradiol solid phase was washed with 10 mM sodium phosphate buffer pH 7.4, and then resuspended in 25 ml of PBS/BSA containing 0.1% sodium azide as preservative. PMP-BGG- estradiol made by this new method was diluted to the same concentration as the reference which was made by the conventional (indirect) method via estradiol - BGG conjugate. The binding characteristic of these two solid phases were generated by the ACS: 180 automated immunoassay analyzer and the resulting calibration curve is shown in Figure 3. Basically, the assay performance of the new solid phase was similar to that ofthe conventional solid phase and the binding curves ofthe two solid phases were parallel to each other.
- the new solid phase took only two days to prepare, whereas the reference solid phase took five days. Nearly half of the latter preparation time was used for dialyzing away uncoupled estradiol from the BGG-estradiol conjugate; in contrast, using the present invention this step was efficiently done by a direct organic solvent extraction for about one hour.
- Diiodothyronine BGG-PMP made by this new method was diluted to the same concentration as the reference which was made by the conventional (indirect) method via diiodothyrone-BGG conjugate.
- the binding characteristic of these two solid phases were generated by the
