Simultaneous antigen detection using multiplex dyes

Abstract: To detect several antigens simultaneously, antibodies directed against different antigens were immobilized on a quartz surface. The antigens were tagged with multiplex, dyes, which show different fluorescence lifetimes but similar excitation and emission spectra. The antigens were detected by recognizing the characteristic fluorescence lifetime. Furthermore, the effect of labeling of the dye on the antigen molecules was examined.

“…Usually a fluorophore, an enzyme, or a radioisotope marker can be used as the probe molecule (1,2). Furthermore, using time-resolved fluorescence measurements, the biological analytes also can be tagged with multiplex dyes, which show similar excitation and emission spectra characteristics but have different fluorescence lifetimes (3)(4)(5). Although these labels are specifically designed to receive a sensitive assay with the detection limit even down to the single molecule level, the chemical procedures involved in attachment of a label are time consuming, expensive, and labor intensive and may lead to additional losses of valuable sample material due to purification steps.…”

“…On the other hand, at concentrations of 10 -10 mol/L and above, most of the time more than one molecular complex is present in the detection volume. A cross correlation analysis using two different antibodies tagged with two dyes of different emission wavelengths or multiplex dyes of different fluorescence lifetimes becomes difficult. Hence, the small dynamic range of affinity assays based on single-molecule detection in solution is not sufficient, and the lower detection limit is often too high for many applications.…”
