Enzyme chemiluminescence immuno assay of free hCG beta in serum based on superparamagnetic polymer microbeads
Superparamagnetic polymers (SPMP) microbead was an excellent form for nanosized magnetic particles less than 10nm to realize their potential applications in many fields. We developed a novel modified suspension polymerization method for the production of superparamagnetic poly ( methacrylate divinylbenzene) ( PMA-DVB) microbeads, with amino groups on their surface after simple modifications. We applied these SPMP microbeads to establish a sandwich enzyme chemiluminence immuno (ECLIA) procedure of detecting the free hCG beta in serum. It was proved to a better method compared to the ELISA, since it need half of the sample volume, simpler protocols, and the time it need was shortened from 2 hours to 1 hour. The detection limit was 0.22 mIU.m(-1), one order lower than the ELISA assay. Its linear range was between 0.45 - 185.2 mIU.m(-1). And in the detections of clinical serum samples, the related coefficient between the two methods' results was 0.955.
