Immunoassays using capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence detection (CE-LIF) is a powerful approach to the determination of trace amounts of analytes in a complex biological matrix. However, its applicability is limited by the requirement that the free and bound tracer (fluorescently labeled compound) be resolved for their identification and quantitation. Here we show that replacing LIF with laser-induced fluorescence polarization (LIFP) permits ultrasensitive immunoassays to be performed with or without the separation of the free and bound tracer. A binding system involving cyclosporin A (CyA) and monoclonal antibody to CyA was chosen to demonstrate both homogeneous and heterogeneous immunoassay approaches. In the homogeneous scheme where the free and bound tracer were not separated, the fluorescence polarization of the mixture was a quantitative measure of the antibody-bound tracer. The concentration and mass detection limits for CyA using the homogeneous competitive assay were found to be 1 nM and 1 amol (10(-18) mol), respectively. The heterogeneous assay involved a nearly baseline separation of the free and bound tracer using CE with a phosphate running buffer of pH 7.0. The complex of the tracer with the antibody had a fluorescence polarization of approximately 0.24 whereas the free tracer had negligible polarization. The fluorescence polarization was independent of analyte concentration, and the fluorescence intensity of either the free or bound tracer was used for quantitation. Results from both assays suggest that the CE-LIFP approaches may have a wider application than the immunoassays based on either CE-LIF or fluorescence polarization alone. |
