Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of myocardial injury index detection, and more specifically, it relates to a test strip for the combined detection of cTnT and cTnI. Background Technology
[0002] Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) are both indicators for myocardial detection. Studies have shown that there is no significant difference between cTnI and cTnT in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and both can identify myocardial damage that CK-MB cannot detect.
[0003] Relevant detection methods include enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), chemiluminescent immunoassay, and radioimmunoassay. Among them, chemiluminescent immunoassay is widely used for the detection of cTnT and cTnI due to its advantages such as high sensitivity, anti-interference ability, and simple operation.
[0004] Currently, both cTnT and cTnI have their advantages in clinical testing: compared to cTnT, cTnI testing has higher specificity, but it still has drawbacks such as the inability to standardize test results and gender differences in results; compared to cTnI, cTnT testing can achieve standardized test results and is gender-neutral, and has the advantages of a longer detection window and better stability, but it still suffers from low specificity. In clinical testing, for example, cTnT increases more frequently than cTnI in patients with unstable angina; and in predicting 30-day mortality after AMI, cTnT testing has a higher predictive accuracy than cTnI.
[0005] Therefore, detecting only one indicator is insufficient. Current detection methods for these two indicators focus on detecting one indicator alone, resulting in low detection efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a method for jointly detecting both indicators.
[0006] Currently, the widely used immunochromatographic assay typically involves preparing test strips. These strips include a sample conjugation pad, a glass fiber pad, a nitrocellulose membrane (containing a test line and a control line), and absorbent paper. The detection principle utilizes the specific binding of antigens and antibodies to detect the target analyte. Specifically, the sample conjugation pad contains a solid-phase coated and fluorescently labeled antibody, for example, using nanospheres as a solid-phase carrier to load fluorescently labeled antibodies. The test line contains the detection antibody. After the antigen binds to the antibodies at both locations, it emits light under certain conditions. Quantitative detection is achieved through the linear relationship between the luminescence intensity and the antigen concentration.
[0007] In the above methods, the detection line contains antibodies. When the binding between the antibodies in the detection line and the nitrocellulose membrane is unstable, the detection line becomes dispersed and severely tailed, resulting in unacceptable test results and requiring retesting. Summary of the Invention
[0008] To improve the problem of detection line trailing, this application provides a test strip for the combined detection of cTnT and cTnI.
[0009] The test strip for the combined detection of cTnT and cTnI provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0010] A test strip for the combined detection of cTnT and cTnI, the test strip comprising a housing, the housing comprising a sample binding region and at least two sample detection regions connected to the sample binding region;
[0011] The sample binding area of the cartridge is provided with a sample binding pad, and each sample detection area is provided with a glass fiber pad, a nitrocellulose membrane and absorbent paper that are sequentially overlapped. The glass fiber pad and the sample binding pad are connected, and the nitrocellulose membrane is provided with a detection line and a quality control line.
[0012] The method for preparing the detection line includes the step of diluting the detection antibody with a detection line diluent and then streaking it onto the nitrocellulose membrane. The components of the detection line diluent include:
[0013] 10-50 mM PB buffer, 5-10 wt% sodium chloride, 0.1-1 wt% sucrose, 0.1-1 wt% trehalose, 0.01%-0.1 wt% BSA, 0.05-0.15 wt% preservative, 0.05-0.15 wt% epigallocatechin gallate, 0.05-0.15 wt% 1,4-butanediamine.
[0014] Nitrocellulose membranes possess a high concentration of hydroxyl and nitro groups. Epigallocatechin gallate is a polyhydroxy water-soluble substance, while 1,4-butanediamine is a polyamino substance. By loading epigallocatechin gallate and 1,4-butanediamine onto the nitrocellulose membrane, the amount of hydroxyl and amino groups on the membrane is significantly altered, resulting in a richer functional group composition. The antigens being detected are all peptides, containing a high number of amino and carboxyl groups. Using the above technical approach, the hydroxyl and amino groups on the nitrocellulose membrane can interact with the amino and carboxyl groups on the antigen, further enhancing the membrane's ability to capture peptides and proteins such as antigens and antibodies, as well as the binding stability between antigens, antibodies, and the nitrocellulose membrane. This ensures that during detection, once the corresponding antigen is present, the detection line is clear and distinct without tailing, thus achieving efficient and effective antigen detection.
[0015] In this scheme, the polyhydroxy compounds (such as epigallocatechin gallate) and polyamino compounds (1,4-butanediamine) need to be water-soluble. After these two types of substances are dissolved in an aqueous solution, they are then soaked in a nitrocellulose membrane so that they can be stably loaded onto the nitrocellulose membrane, thereby exerting their function of stably and firmly capturing the target antigen or antibody.
[0016] Optionally, the detection antibody is diluted with the detection line diluent to achieve a concentration of 0.5-1.5 mg / mL.
[0017] Optionally, the method for preparing the control line includes the step of diluting the control material with a control line diluent and then streaking it onto the nitrocellulose membrane. The components of the control line diluent include: 10-50 mM PB buffer, 5-10 wt% sodium chloride, 0.1-1 wt% sucrose, 0.1-1 wt% trehalose, 0.01%-0.1 wt% BSA, 0.05-0.15 wt% preservative, 0.05-0.15 wt% epigallocatechin gallate, and 0.05-0.15 wt% 1,4-butanediamine.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the distribution, type and number of groups on the nitrocellulose membrane are significantly changed by loading gallic catechin gallate and 1,4-butanediamine, thereby significantly improving its ability to capture antigens and antibodies, and thus significantly improving the tailing of the quality control line.
[0019] Optionally, the quality control material is diluted with the quality control line diluent to achieve a concentration of 0.5-1.5 mg / mL.
[0020] Optionally, the quality control material can be goat anti-chicken IgY or DNP antigen.
[0021] Optionally, the preparation method of the sample binding pad includes the steps of soaking a blank glass fiber pad in a sample diluent and then drying it. The sample diluent comprises: 10-200 mM PB buffer, 10-200 mM Tris buffer, 0.01-1 wt% surfactant, 0.05-0.15 wt% preservative, 0.2-0.6 mg / mL blocking agent, 0.5-2 wt% sodium casein, 0.5-2 wt% polyvinyl alcohol, 0.05-0.5 mg / mL fluorescent nanosphere-labeled cTnI monoclonal antibody, 0.05-0.5 mg / mL fluorescent nanosphere-labeled cTnT monoclonal antibody, and 0.05-0.5 mg / mL fluorescent nanosphere-labeled quality control antibody.
[0022] However, the presence of substances like IgG in the sample can affect the detection results and cause false positives. Therefore, an inhibitor is added to the sample dilution buffer. This inhibitor can bind to substances like HAMA and rheumatoid factor RF, preventing these substances from binding to antibodies, reducing their impact on the test results, and improving the accuracy of the results.
[0023] Optionally, the nanofluorescent microsphere-labeled quality control antibody is a nanofluorescent microsphere-labeled chicken IgY monoclonal antibody or a nanofluorescent microsphere-labeled anti-DNP monoclonal antibody.
[0024] In this protocol, the fluorescent microsphere-labeled control antibody in the sample diluent corresponds to the quality control material on the control line. For example, when the fluorescent microsphere-labeled control antibody is specifically selected as a fluorescent microsphere-labeled chicken IgY monoclonal antibody, the quality control material is goat anti-chicken IgY; when the fluorescent microsphere-labeled control antibody is specifically selected as a fluorescent microsphere-labeled anti-DNP monoclonal antibody, the quality control material is DNP antigen.
[0025] Optionally, the surfactant is selected from any one or more of S9, TWEEN80, TWEEN20, and S17.
[0026] Optionally, the method for preparing the glass fiber mat includes the step of soaking a blank glass fiber mat in a glass fiber mat solution and then drying it, wherein the glass fiber mat comprises: 10-50 mM Tris-HCl and 0.5-5 wt% disaccharide.
[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, the release of cTnT monoclonal antibodies and cTnI monoclonal antibodies labeled with fluorescent microspheres can be delayed, and the residue of cTnT monoclonal antibodies and cTnI monoclonal antibodies labeled with fluorescent microspheres on the glass fiber pad can be reduced, thereby improving the accuracy of the detection results.
[0028] Optionally, the disaccharide is composed of sucrose and trehalose in a mass ratio of 1:(0.5-1.5).
[0029] Optionally, when detecting an antigen, the detection antibody is a mixture of one or more monoclonal antibodies corresponding to the antigen.
[0030] In summary, this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0031] 1. This application modifies the surface of nitrocellulose membrane by simultaneously adding epigallocatechin gallate and 1,4-butanediamine to the detection line diluent, thereby increasing the variety and quantity of its surface active groups (hydroxyl and amino groups) to achieve stable capture of target proteins and significantly improve the tailing of the detection line.
[0032] 2. In this application, epigallocatechin gallate and 1,4-butanediamine are also added to the quality control line diluent to solve the quality control line tailing problem. Attached Figure Description

[0104] Performance testing
[0105] 1. Standard Curve
[0106] 1.1 Preparation of the standard curve for cTnT detection
[0107] The test strips of Example 2 were used to perform combined detection of cTnT and cTnI.
[0108] The steps for preparing the standard curve for cTnT detection are as follows:
[0109] Standard curves were plotted using the Roche assignment method with lyophilized samples. Specifically, lyophilized samples were used to prepare solutions with concentrations of 5.01, 10.05, 20.07, 58.8, 125.4, 286.3, 521.02, 1354.66, 5013.21, and 9869 ng / L. The samples were then tested using the method described in Example 2. Each sample was placed on a WIZ A101 portable immunoassay analyzer from Weizheng Biotechnology for detection, and graphs were plotted using Log concentration and Log(T / C), where T is the detection line and C is the control line. The linearity obtained from Log concentration, log(T / C) (i.e., the luminescence intensity of the detection line and control line), and cTnT concentration was 0.03-32 ng / L. Figure 2 As shown, the linear regression equation is obtained: y = 0.7951x - 2.4618; the linear range of cTnT is 5-10000ng / L.
[0110] 1.2 Preparation of the standard curve for cTnI detection
[0111] The test strips of Example 2 were used to perform combined detection of cTnT and cTnI.
[0112] The steps for preparing the standard curve for cTnI detection are as follows:
[0113] A standard curve was prepared using the Siemens assignment method from the lyophilized samples.
[0114] Solutions with concentrations of 5.01, 10.05, 20.07, 58.8, 125.4, 286.3, 521.02, 1354.66, 5013.21, and 9869 ng / mL were prepared from the lyophilized samples. The samples were tested using the method described in Example 2. Each sample was tested on the same equipment as described above, and a standard curve was plotted based on the luminescence intensity and the data described above. Figure 3 As shown, the linear regression equation is obtained: y = 0.7865x - 0.8373, R0 2 =0.9979; the linear range of cTnI is 0.03-40 ng / mL.
[0115] 2. Specificity:
[0116] Different samples were tested using the Roche high-sensitivity troponin T assay kit to obtain the cTnT values for each sample. Different samples were also tested using the Siemens high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (cTnI) assay kit (direct chemiluminescence immunoassay) to obtain the cTnI values for each sample. Finally, the method described in Example 2 of this application was used to obtain the cTnT and cTnI values for each sample. The detection values of the corresponding indicators from the two methods were compared to obtain the detection result deviation, and the specific results are shown in Table 1. The results in Table 1 show that when using the assay kit of this application for combined cTnT and cTnI detection, the data deviation of the detection results is within the range of 0-15%, indicating that the assay kit of this application has good specificity.

[0118]
[0119] 2. Statistics on the trailing effect of the testing line
[0120] 180 positive samples of cTnT and cTnI were tested using test strips from Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3, respectively. The tailing of the test line for each test strip was statistically analyzed, and the specific results are shown in Table 2.
[0121] Table 2. Test line trailing on the test strips
[0122]
[0123] The data in Table 2 show that adding 1,4-butanediamine and epigallocatechin gallate to the test line diluent simultaneously significantly reduces test line tailing, resulting in a higher success rate and more accurate results. When using the test strips from Examples 1-3 for combined detection of cTnT and cTnI, the tailing rate of both cTnT and cTnI test lines was less than 1%, specifically controlled within the range of 0-0.56%.
[0124] Comparing the results of Example 2 and Comparative Examples 1-3, it was found that, for example, in Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, simply adding epigallocatechin gallate to the detection line diluent could alleviate the detection line tailing issue to some extent, but more than 4% of the samples still exhibited detection line tailing. However, the methods of simply adding epigallocatechin gallate to the detection line diluent and simply adding 1,4-butanediamine to the detection line diluent were more effective in resolving detection line tailing. For example, in Comparative Example 1, more than 5% of the samples exhibited detection line tailing.
[0125] When neither 1,4-butanediamine nor epigallocatechin gallate was added to the test line diluent, the tailing of the test line was more severe, with the tailing rate reaching 11.11%.
[0126] 3. Quality control line tailing statistics
[0127] The test strips from Examples 2 and 4-5 were used to test 180 positive samples of cTnT and cTnI, respectively. The tailing of the test line for each test strip was statistically analyzed. The specific results are shown in Table 3.
[0128] Table 3. Test line tailing on the test strips
[0129]
[0130]
[0131] The data in Table 3 show that by simultaneously adding 1,4-butanediamine and epigallocatechin gallate to the control line diluent, the tailing of the control line can be significantly reduced, resulting in a higher success rate and more accurate test results.
[0132] Comparing the results of Examples 2 and 4-6, it was found that epigallocatechin gallate and 1,4-butanediamine need to be added simultaneously to the quality control line diluent in order to effectively solve the problem of quality control line tailing.

After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but such modifications are protected by patent law as long as they fall within the scope of the claims of this application.
