Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tubular reaction container for immunological analyzes, which has at least at and next to its closed end an inner wall on which an antibody is fixed, to which the component to be analyzed (antigen) and a labeled component (labeled antigen) of a solution bind in the reaction vessel, the surface of the inner wall of the reaction vessel being enlarged at and near its closed end by the fact that inwardly directed formations are formed in the inner wall which are uniformly distributed over the circumference.
  • the formations are designed as flanges which are rectangular in cross section and rounded in side view and which practically only extend over the height of the round bottom of the reaction vessel.
  • the the reaction rate i.e. H. the diffusion distance from the liquid space to the wall, which determines the binding rate of the molecules on the wall, is relatively large.
  • the inner wall area is too small for some antibodies to be attached. Quite apart from this, it is disadvantageous that gussets are formed between the inner wall of the container and the flanges, which at least make emptying the reaction container more difficult and in which air bubbles can get caught.
  • the object of the invention is to improve the function of the generic reaction vessel.
  • the solution to this problem is that the formations consist of a maximum of eight round-flank ribs, which extend radially over a length of 1/4 to 1/2 the length of the container by 1/8 to slightly less than 1/2 of the inner diameter of the container extend inward into the container.
  • the diffusion distance is short and the inner surface available is more than sufficient in any case. Because the ribs are rounded, i.e. H. between rounded inner wall surfaces, complete emptying of liquid is guaranteed. That is e.g. B. when fixing the antibody on the inner wall of importance, with various chemical treatment and washing steps are required. In the case of immunological experiments, the reaction containers no longer need to be washed if there is complete emptying. This saves time and leads to more uniform test results. Due to the increased inner wall area, the outer diameter of the containers can be reduced, so that conventional analysis devices, which generally place limits on the outer diameter of the reaction containers, can be used. In any case, the reaction containers according to the invention deliver optimal results in practice.
  • the container is provided with four to six ribs arranged symmetrically.
  • Each rib can protrude from the wall into the reaction container by a piece, which corresponds to 1/5 to 1/3 of the inside diameter of the cross section of the container.
  • a particularly advantageous reaction container is a test tube, the lower or closed end of which is provided with five symmetrically arranged ribs on the tube wall, which extend from the wall into the tube by a piece corresponding to approximately 1/3 of the inner diameter of the tube cross section.
  • the reaction container according to the invention is preferably made of a plastic or another material containing hydrophilic functional groups, such as -COOH, -OH, -CHO, -NH 2 etc.
  • Suitable plastics for the reaction container are, for example, polyacrylate-ethylene copolymers; Polystyrene derivatives, such as polyaminostyrene, polystyrene acrylonitrile or polyvinylbenzyl chloride; Polyhydroxyethyl methacrylate.
  • reaction containers can perform immunological analyzes quickly and the possibility of errors decreases because the binding reaction can proceed almost to the end before the solution is removed from the container and the amount of labeled component bound to the wall is measured means a clear benefit to the user when hundreds of analyzes generally need to be performed daily.
  • the antibody is fixed to the reaction container in a simple and reliable manner, since the material of the reaction container contains functional groups.
  • the surface of the wall of the tubular reaction container is enlarged in that in the wall four ribs S are provided which extend over part of the length of the container.
  • the liquid-filled space V in the tube also becomes somewhat narrower.
  • the distance between two opposite ribs is about half the pipe diameter.
  • the liquid space V is thus divided into four compartments by the ribs S, which protrude into the container by about 1/3 of the diameter corresponding piece.
  • the reaction container according to the invention is used as follows: The test sample and the marked constituent are introduced into the reaction container. Thereupon the antigen in the sample and the labeled antigen, which functions as the labeled component, bind to the antibody on the wall of the reaction container. When the binding reaction is sufficiently advanced, the solution is poured from the reaction vessel and the amount of the labeled component adhered to the wall of the reaction vessel is measured. The amount of labeled component can also be measured from the solution poured out of the reaction container. The method of analysis depends on the labeled component used.
  • the antibody is fixed to the wall of the reaction container by chemical binding of the antibody to the functional groups of the material from which the reaction container is made.
  • reaction vessels are obtained, even when mass-produced, while also ensuring perfect storage.
  • the binding of the antigen and the labeled constituent to the antibody fixed to the wall of the reaction container takes place very quickly.
  • the reaction container according to the invention it is possible to analyze all such substances and combinations of substances which permit an immunological analysis.
  • the antibody fixed to the wall of the reaction container can also be an antigen.
