Tutorial review. Oriented immobilization of antibodies and its applications in immunoassays and immunosensors

Lu, Bin, Smyth, Malcolm R., O'Kennedy, Richard·1996·The Analyst

Abstract

The immobilization of antibodies on solid-phase materials has been used in many areas such as purification, diagnostic immunoassays and immunosensors. Problems associated with the loss of biological activity of the antibodies upon immobilization have been noticed in many cases. One of the main reasons for such loss is attributed to the random orientation of the asymmetric macromolecules on support surfaces. In this paper, the approaches for achieving oriented coupling of antibodies to increase the antigen binding capacity are reviewed. Some issues such as steric hindrance caused by neighbouring antibody molecules, the distance between an antibody and the support surface and the use of antibody fragments are dealt with. Some applications of the oriented immobilized antibodies in immunoassays and immunosensors are examined.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
