Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of in vitro diagnostic reagent technology, specifically relating to a reagent for detecting serum iron metabolism markers (transferrin, serum iron, and unsaturated iron binding capacity). Background Technology

[0002] Serum iron and its metabolites detection refers to the determination of the content of iron and its metabolites in serum. The results can indicate the type and degree of anemia, guide treatment and evaluate the treatment efficacy, and can also indicate certain diseases. The main targets of iron metabolism marker detection include transferrin, serum iron, and unsaturated iron binding capacity: (1) Transferrin detection kit is used to quantitatively determine the content of transferrin (TF) in human serum in vitro. (2) Serum iron detection kit is used to quantitatively determine the content of iron (FE) in human serum in vitro. Under acidic conditions, serum iron is released from the transferrin bound to it, and at the same time, ferric iron is reduced to ferrous ions (ferrous ions). Ferrous ions react with ferrous ions to form a purple complex. The absorbance change is measured at 560 nm and is proportional to the iron ion concentration in the sample. (3) Unsaturated iron binding capacity detection kit is used to quantitatively determine the unsaturated iron binding capacity in human serum in vitro. In an alkaline buffer solution with excess iron ions, all transferrin in the sample that was not bound to iron binds to iron ions. The remaining iron ions react with the reducing agent ascorbic acid and the colorimetric agent disodium furan triazine to form a blue complex (600 nm). The unsaturated iron binding force of the sample can be calculated by calculating the amount of iron ions reduced in the buffer solution.

[0003] However, existing iron metabolism reagents, which use transferrin, serum iron, and unsaturated iron binding capacity as core detection indicators, are easily interfered with by various substances in clinical biochemical tests. For example, (1) hemolysis (hemoglobin-Hb): causes spectral and chemical interference. (2) jaundice (bilirubin-Bil): causes spectral interference and possible reaction competition. (3) lipemia (chylotriglycemia-TG): causes light scattering, increasing light absorption. (4) other metal ions (Cu) 2+ Zn 2+ ): Competitively binds with the colorimetric reagent. (5) Reducing substances (such as ascorbic acid-VitC): Affect the redox reaction process. In addition, existing reagent formulations mostly use single or small amounts of masking agents, which are difficult to cope with the challenges of multiple interferences coexisting in complex clinical samples, and the additives may affect each other, resulting in limited effectiveness. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies and to solve the problem of easy interference from various substances in the detection of iron metabolism markers (transferrin, serum iron, and unsaturated iron binding capacity), the present invention aims to design and provide a novel and highly efficient composite interference neutralizing reagent set, which is integrated into the reagent formulation. Through the synergistic effect between the components, the interference of endogenous and exogenous substances can be effectively eliminated, significantly improving the accuracy and reliability of the detection results.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] On one hand, the present invention provides a composite interference neutralizing reagent kit for the detection of iron metabolism markers, comprising the following components at working concentrations: 1-10 mmol / L cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid, 20-100 mmol / L triethanolamine, 0.5-3.0 mmol / L potassium ferrocyanide, 0.1%-1.0% w / v polyethylene glycol, 0.5-5.0 mmol / L sodium nitrite, 0.05%-0.5% w / v poloxamer 407, and 0.1-2.0 mmol / L N-ethylmaleimide.

[0007] 1-10 mmol / L cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid and 20-100 mmol / L triethanolamine were used as metal ion masking synergists. Interfering with metal ions (Cu... 2+ Zn 2+ TEA possesses extremely strong chelating ability, but at high concentrations it may affect the main reaction. The addition of TEA not only has a weak masking effect itself, but also forms a synergistic effect with CDTA, enhancing the selective masking of specific metal ions, while simultaneously stabilizing CDTA to prevent it from affecting Fe. 2+ , / Fe3 + , and the reaction with chromogenic agents or transferrin.

[0008] Potassium ferrocyanide (K4[Fe(CN)6]) and polyethylene glycol-6000 (PEG-6000) are used as hemoglobin scavengers and stabilizers. Potassium ferrocyanide reacts with hemoglobin to form stable cyanogenic methemoglobin, eliminating its interference. The addition of PEG-6000 promotes the soluble aggregation of the reaction product, preventing precipitation, while also stabilizing colloids and reducing lipid light scattering, achieving two benefits at once.

[0009] Sodium nitrite (NaNO2) and poloxamer 407 serve as bilirubin oxidation and lipid emulsifiers. Under acidic buffer conditions, sodium nitrite slowly releases trace amounts of nitrous acid, effectively oxidizing bilirubin to its colorless derivatives. Poloxamer 407 is a nonionic polymeric surfactant that efficiently emulsifies lipid particles and significantly reduces light scattering interference. Its use in conjunction with sodium nitrite provides a suitable microenvironment for bilirubin oxidation.

[0010] N-Ethylmaleimide (NEM) is used as a neutralizing agent for reducing substances. NEM is a highly efficient thiol reagent that can specifically and rapidly undergo addition reactions with reducing substances (such as ascorbic acid and glutathione) to neutralize their reducing properties, thereby eliminating their interference with the reduction step without affecting the subsequent colorimetric reaction.

[0011] The above-mentioned composite interference neutralizing reagent group was used as the core anti-interference component and added to the buffer system of reagent 1 (R1) in the kit.

[0012] The composite interference neutralizing reagent kit for the detection of iron metabolism markers, wherein the volume ratio of cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid, triethanolamine, potassium ferrocyanide, polyethylene glycol, sodium nitrite, poloxamer 407, and N-ethylmaleimide is [missing information].

[0030] The aforementioned interference-resistant iron metabolism marker detection kit, wherein the surfactant is a nonionic surfactant;

[0034] The aforementioned interference-resistant iron metabolism marker detection kit, when the iron metabolism marker detection kit is an unsaturated iron binding capacity detection kit, comprises:

[0035] Reagent 1 is a solution containing 0.4-0.8 mol / L Tris buffer solution with pH 8.0-9.0, 0.05-0.2 mol / L thiourea, and 10-20 μmol / L ferrous ammonium sulfate;

[0048] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0049] 1. The composite interference neutralizing reagent group of this invention produces a synergistic effect, rather than simply adding masking agents. Cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid (a strong chelating agent), as the main active ingredient, preferentially forms stable chelates with metal ions, directly blocking their interaction with transferrin antibodies (transferrin detection), ferroazine (serum iron detection), and transferrin binding sites (unsaturated iron binding capacity detection). Triethanolamine, as a synergistic ingredient, enhances the chelating ability of cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid by adjusting the pH of the detection system; furthermore, its amino group can form auxiliary coordination bonds with metal ions, further strengthening the chelate structure and preventing high concentrations of metal ions from overcoming the masking effect of a single chelating agent. Compared to using the traditional masking agent EDTA alone, this combination improves the masking efficiency for metal ions while avoiding additional interference from pH fluctuations to the three types of detection reactions.

[0050] 2. Precise targeting: Each type of interference has a corresponding combination solution, which is highly targeted and avoids the side effects that may be caused by a single high-concentration masking agent.

[0051] 3. Versatile formulation: As a whole module, this composite system can be flexibly embedded into the existing R1 reagent formulations of immunoturbidimetric, ferrizimine, and Ferene methods, making it highly universal and easy to promote in industrial applications.

[0052] 4. Significant improvement: It can greatly improve the performance of the kit in difficult clinical samples, improve the accuracy and repeatability of the test, and reduce the retesting rate and the risk of misdiagnosis.

[0053] 5. Highly innovative: This invention is the first to propose the use of NEM as an iron metabolism reagent to resist interference from reducing substances, and the use of the NaNO2 / Poloxamer 407 combination for the dual treatment of bilirubin and lipemia. These combinations are not obvious and have outstanding substantive features. Detailed Implementation

[0134] Example 12: Performance Testing of the Unsaturated Iron Binding Force Detection Kit

[0135] 1. Standard Curve

[0136] (1) Reagent preparation: Take the reagents from the kit in Example 9.

[0137] (2) Experimental procedure:

[0138] Turn on the Olympus AU2700 fully automated biochemical analyzer, preheat it, and use the endpoint method. Add the test item to the fully automated biochemical analyzer and set the test item parameters as follows: Standard: (Reagent 1 + Complex Interference Neutralizing Reagent Set): Reagent 2 = 15μL / 200μL / 50μL; where the volume ratio of Reagent 1 to the Complex Interference Neutralizing Reagent Set is 20:1; main wavelength 600nm, secondary wavelength 700nm; reaction temperature 37℃; total reaction time 10min; reaction direction is ascending. Prepare standard concentrations of 0g / L, 4g / L, 31g / L, 58g / L, 85g / L, 112g / L, 140g / L, and 150g / L. Take 15μL of each of the above different concentrations of standard and mix it with 200μL of Reagent 1 + Complex Interference Neutralizing Reagent Set. Incubate at 37℃ for 5 minutes and read the absorbance value A1. Add 50 μL of reagent 2, mix well, incubate at 37℃ for 5 minutes, and then measure the absorbance A2. Calculate ΔA = A2 - A1. Plot a standard curve based on the absorbance change rate (ΔA) and the corresponding standard concentration (mg / L).

[0139] Results: Within the range of 4 μmol / L to 140 μmol / L, the linear correlation coefficient r ≥ 0.9900; when the concentration is [4, 20] μmol / L, the absolute deviation does not exceed ±2 μmol / L; when the concentration is [20, 140] μmol / L, the relative deviation does not exceed ±10%. This indicates a good linear relationship.

[0140] 2. Sensitivity Detection

[0141] Serum with a concentration of approximately 60 μmol / L was used as the test sample. The kit prepared in Example 5 was used, and the composite interference neutralizing reagent group was added to the buffer system of the first reagent (R1) of the kit as the core anti-interference component. The test sample was tested, and the absorbance change produced by the kit was recorded. The absorbance difference (ΔA) of the 60 μmol / L sample was converted. The result ΔA was 0.0900. The ΔA result was between 0.0500 and 0.1500, which proved that the kit of the present invention has high sensitivity.

[0142] 3. Accuracy testing

[0143] Using the kit prepared in Example 1, the enterprise reference material was measured three times. The results of the three measurements were calculated as M, and the relative deviation (Bias%) was calculated according to the above formula (1).

[0144] Table 3 Test Results

[0145]

[0146] The results are shown in Table 3 above. The relative deviations calculated three times did not exceed ±10%. This demonstrates that the kit of the present invention has high accuracy.

[0147] The performance of the unsaturated iron binding force test kits obtained in Examples 10 and 11 was tested using the same method as described above. The results were similar to those described above; the unsaturated iron binding force test kits prepared in Examples 10 and 11 also exhibited high sensitivity and accuracy.
