原理
- The essential reagents required for a solid phase sequential enzyme immunoassay include immobilized antibody, enzyme-antigen conjugate and native antigen. Upon mixing immobilized antibody, and a whole blood sample containing the native antigen, a binding reaction results between the native antigen for a limited number of insolubulized binding sites. After removing any unreacted native antigen by a wash step, the enzyme-conjugated antigen is introduced. The conjugate reacts with sites of the antibody unoccupied by the native antigen. After a short second incubation, the antibody-bound fraction is separated from unbound antigen by decantation or aspiration. The enzyme activity in the antibody-bound fraction is inversely proportional to the native antigen concentration. By utilizing several different calibrators of known antigen concentration, a dose response curve can be generated from which the antigen concentration of an unknown can be ascertained.

应用备注
- Precautions: All products that contain human blood have been found to be non-reactive for Hepatitis B Surface Antigen, HIV 1&2 and HCV Antibodies by FDA required tests. Since no known test can offer complete assurance that infectious agents are absent, all human serum products should be handled as potentially hazardous and capable of transmitting disease. Good laboratory procedures for handling blood products can be found in the Center for Disease Control / National Institute of Health, Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories, 2nd Edition, 1988, HHS Publication No. (CDC) 88-8395.

样品收集
- The sampling from neonates is performed by lancing the heels of the infants and then spotting enough whole blood on S&S filter paper card to fill the marked circle. Allow the filter paper to dry at room temperature overnight away from heat and moisture. Enclose the dry blood specimen (DBS) in a moisture barrier plastic bag with desiccant and send to the laboratory. The specimen should be collected 3-7 days post partum, Physical data including age and weight of the infant, whether a multiple birth, or a premature birth etc should accompany the sample. It is important for the clinician to know these facts in order to properly assess the thyroid status of the infant. The dried blood samples are stable at 2-8°C for 2-3 weeks if stored in zip-lock, moisture resistant bags with desiccants.

结果分析
-
A dose response curve is used to ascertain the concentration of Neo-natal T4 in unknown specimens. 1. Record the absorbance obtained from the printout of the microplate readr. 2. Plot the absorbance for each duplicate serum reference versus the corresponding NNT4 concentration in µg/dl on linear graph paper (do not average the duplicates of the serum references before plotting). 3. Draw the best-fit curve through the plotted points. 4. To determine the concentration of NNT4 for an unknown, locate the average absorbance of the duplicates for each unknown on the vertical axis of the graph, find the intersecting point on the curve, and read the concentration (in µg/dl) from the horizontal axis of the graph (the duplicates of the unknown may be averaged as indicated).

注意事项
- Before proceeding with the assay, bring all reagents and patient samples to room temperature (20 - 27°C). 1. Assemble the required number of microwells for each calibrator, control and patient sample to be assayed in duplicate. Replace any unused microwell strips back into the aluminum bag, seal and store at 2-8°C. Punch out 1/8” blood dot out of each calibrator, control and specimens into the assigned wells. (NOTE: Do not punch blood dots from areas that are printed or that are near the edge of the blood spot). 3. Add 0. 100 ml (100µl) of Neo-T4 Elution Reagent to all the wells. 4. Shake the microplate gently for 20-30 seconds to mix. (NOTE: Make sure that all blood dots are fully submerged in the liquid and not stuck to the walls of the microwells). 5. Cover with a microplate cover and rotate for 90 minutes at ambient temperature using a laboratory rotator set @ 150rpm. (Note: see alternative overnight incubation). 6. Discard the contents of the microplate by decantation or aspiration. If decanting, blot the plate dry with absorbent paper. NOTE: Make sure all the blood dots are removed at this point. There should be no dots left in the microwells. 7. Add 350µl of wash buffer (see Reagent Preparation Section), decant (tap and blot) or aspirate. 8. Repeat four additional times for a total of five washes. An automatic or manual plate washer can be used. Follow the manufacturer’s instruction for proper usage. 9. If a squeeze bottle is employed, fill each well by depressing the container (avoiding air bubbles) to dispense the wash. Decant the wash and repeat four additional times. 10. Add 100 µl of working Neo-T4 Enzyme Reagent to each well. Cover the microplate and rotate for 45 minutes at ambient temperature using a laboratory rotator set @ 150rpm. (Note: see alternative overnight incubation). Repeat wash step Number7. 11. Add 0. 100 ml (100µl) of substrate solution to each well. 12. Cover the microplate and incubate for 15 minutes at ambient temperature. No rotation is required for this step. 13. Add 0. 050ml (50µl) of stop solution to each well and gently mix for 15-20 seconds. NOTE: Always add reagents in the same order to minimize reaction time differences between wells. 14 . Read the absorbance in each well at 450nm using a reference wavelength of 620-630nm to minimize well imperfections) in a microplate reader. The results should be read within 15 minutes of adding the stop solution. Alternative overnight procedure: 1. Substitute overnight incubation (12-16hrs) for the 90 minutes with rotation (Step 5). No rotator is required. Seal the plate(s) with plastic wrap. 2. Substitute 1 hr incubation for the 45 minute incubation with rotation (Step 8). No rotator isrequired. 3. All other steps remain the same.

背景
- Summary and Explanation of the Test: Determination of hypothyroidism within the first few days of birth has been recognized as the single most important diagnostic test in neonates by the American Thyroid Association. The need for its early detection and treatment has resulted in the establishment of screening centers by federal and state health departments. A program of early screening of neonates for congenital hypothyroidism was started in Quebec, Canada in the early seventies. They used dry blood spots on filter paper as the sampling device. Very soon the program was followed by other major public health institutions in Canada and the US. By 1978, almost one million infants had been screened and an incidence rate of congenital hypothyroidism was established to be approximately 1 in 7000 births. Congenital hypothyroidism is probably the single most common preventable cause of mental retardation. Diagnosis and treatment of congenital hypothyroidism within the first 1-2 months after birth appears to be necessary in order to prevent severe mental retardation This microplate enzyme immunoassay methodology provides the technician with optimum sensitivity while requiring few technical manipulations. In this method, calibrators, patient specimen, or controls, all made and dried in whole blood are first added to a microplate well. A buffer containing essential ingredients to isolate T4 from blood proteins is added. The blood from the filter paper dots is allowed to elute in the buffer. In the process T4 (Thyroxine) dissociates from the serum (blood) proteins and binds to the antibody that is immobilized on the inside of the microwells. Excess blood is removed using a wash step. Enzyme-T4 conjugate is added. The enzyme labeled T4 binds to the sites on the antibody left available by the native T4 that came from the sample. After the completion of the required incubation period, excess enzyme conjugate is removed using a wash step. The activity of the enzyme present on the surface of the well is quantitated by reaction with a suitable substrate to produce color. The employment of several references, made in whole blood, of known thyroxine concentration permits construction of a dose response curve (DRC-graph) of activity and oncentration. Intended Use: The Quantitative Determination of Total Thyroxine Concentration in Human (Neonates) whole blood by a Microwell Enzyme Immunoassay. Q. C. Paramters: In order for the assay results to be considered valid the following criteria should be met. The absorbance (OD) of Calibrator 0 µg/dl should be greater than 1.3. 2. Four out of six quality control pools should be within the established ranges.
