AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides an immunochromatographic kit and method to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis with high-sensitivity and specificity. This is achieved by incorporating a compound containing silver and a reducing agent capable of reducing silver ions, and by using a monoclonal antibody as a first or second antibody in the kit. The kit includes a label substance modified with the first antibody against lipoarabinomannan and a porous carrier having a reaction site holding the second antibody against lipoarabinomannan.

Problems solved by technology

Lack of diagnostic sensitivity, lack of specificity for Mycobacterium tuberculosis caused by cross-reaction with a nontuberculous mycobacterial group due to use of polyclonal antibodies, and the like have been pointed out in existing kits and methods for detecting lipoarabinomannan (LAM) and diagnosing tuberculosis, which is an infectious disease.

[0165]1 mL of a 50 mmol / L of KH2PO4 buffer (pH 8.0) was added to 9 mL of a solution (Product No.: EM. GC50, manufactured by Boston Biomedical Inc.) containing gold colloid having a diameter of 50 nm to adjust a pH. Thereafter, 1 mL of a solution containing 20 μg / mL of an anti-lipoarabinomannan monoclonal antibody (antibody A194-01 produced according to a method for producing A-194-01 described in WO2017 / 139153A (DETAILED DESCRIPTION D. Anti-LAM and Anti-PIM6 / LAM Antibodies 1. A194-01)) was added thereto and stirred for 10 minutes. Thereafter, after the solution...
