Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for assaying a target analyte in a liquid sample, and to an assay device arranged to carry out this method.
- the invention relates to the field of assaying soluble molecules of interest in a liquid medium. This is in particular the field of the immunological assay of proteins, for example in a sample of whole blood.
- the state of the art offers assay methods which use magnetic particles for the capture and/or extraction of analytes present in a liquid sample.
- the magnetic particles carry one or more receptors specific to the target analyte, which allows them to bind to the analyte to form complexes.
- the complexes can then be captured by the application of a magnetic field.
- Applications concerning the extraction of nucleic acids generally comprise a plurality of successive steps including the lysis of the cells to release the nucleic acids, the bringing into contact of the lysed solution with the magnetic particles to capture the nucleic acids, applying a magnetic field (also called “magnetization”) and washing. This is followed by the elution of nucleic acids (usually by a change in pH) and the removal of magnetic particles. The isolated nucleic acids can then be processed and assayed.
- Heterogeneous methods require a greater number of steps, which generally makes them long to implement. They are also complex to implement. Kourilov, Vitaly, and Michael Steinitz, "Magnetic-bead enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay verifies adsorption of ligand and epitope accessibility" Analytical biochemistry 311.2 (2002): 166-170 describes a heterogeneous method.
- a non-specific signal is notably measured when at least one interfering analyte is in competition with T target analyte to bind to magnetic particles or to the receptor specific to T target analyte.
- interfering analyte can vary. For example, it may be a protein whose three-dimensional structure is close to that of the target analyte or even a molecule carrying an electrical charge. More generally, an interfering analyte can be any molecule exhibiting a non-negligible affinity for the magnetic particles or for the receptors grafted to their surface. It follows that the signal measured during the assay test is never zero. Existing methods therefore seek to reduce the probability of a non-specific signal. However, the existing methods generally do not make it possible to differentiate between a specific signal and a non-specific signal.
- the present invention improves the situation.
- the present invention relates to a method for assaying a target analyte in a biological sample in a liquid medium, comprising the following steps: a. bringing the biological sample into contact with first magnetic particles carrying a first receptor specific to a first attachment site of the target analyte so as to form first complexes by binding the first magnetic particles with the target analyte, this bringing into contact being accompanied, when an interfering analyte is present in the sample, by the formation of interfering complexes by the non-specific binding of said interfering analyte to the first magnetic particles; b.
- step a the application of a first magnetic field, and its maintenance, so as to locally bring together all the complexes formed in step a., and if necessary to agglomerate interfering complexes with each other to form interfering aggregates;
- step b the cancellation of the magnetic field applied in step b. and the addition to the liquid medium of second magnetic particles carrying a second receptor specific to a second attachment site of the target analyte;
- step d the measurement of a first quantity representative of the quantity of interfering aggregates in the liquid medium, to identify the presence or absence of said interfering aggregates;
- step a includes the formation of interfering complexes by the binding of the first magnetic particles with the interfering analyte;
- step b. thus includes the formation of aggregates between interfering complexes;
- step d. then provides for the quantitative measurement of interfering aggregates trained;
- step f. provides a calculation to determine the amount of target analyte present in the biological sample, as well as the amount of interfering analyte.
- the method of the invention makes it possible to overcome excessive dilution and consequently to ensure good analytical sensitivity. Furthermore, the invention limits the steps in order to simplify the whole test. This results in particular in a drastically reduced time which does not exceed the maximum duration of approximately 15 minutes.
- the interfering complexes do not form. It follows that the quantity measured in step d. is zero or does not exceed a predefined threshold value.
- the method of the invention thus makes it possible not only to identify the presence of an interfering analyte in the biological sample, but also to quantify it.
- the method makes it possible to deduce the quantity of target analyte in the biological sample.
- Step f. may include the calculation of the difference between the second quantity measured at this step f. and the first quantity measured in step c. to determine the amount of target analyte.
- the cancellation of the first magnetic field in step c. is followed or accompanied by the addition of second magnetic particles, then the measurement of step d. of the first quantity representative of the quantity of interfering aggregates.
- this measurement can be carried out directly after the cancellation of the magnetic field, that is to say before the introduction of the second magnetic particles into the liquid medium (or reaction medium).
- the second magnetic field is preferably canceled prior to said measure. This increases the sensitivity of the measurement.
- each first receptor is specific to a first attachment site of the target analyte and each second receptor is specific to a second attachment site, different from the first, of the analyte. target.
- the flexibility resulting from two distinct attachment sites makes it possible to quickly adapt the method of the invention to the various needs according to the nature of the application implemented.
- the magnetic field applied in step b. is greater than or equal to 100 mT, and the maintenance of the magnetic field is less than or equal to 5 minutes, and preferably less than or equal to 3 minutes.
- the application of the first magnetic field in step b. and applying the second magnetic field in step e. comprises magnetization at 8 mT for 1 second, followed by three successive sequences of magnetizations and the following breaks: 15 mT for 60 seconds, 0 mT for 28 seconds, 8 mT for 1 second, 0 mT for 1 second.
- the magnetization and cut-off sequence chosen allows increased precision of the method of the invention by promoting the formation of complexes between the analytes and the magnetic particles on the one hand, and by allowing a more precise reading on the other. go.
- the measurements performed in steps d. and F. are chosen from the group consisting of a measurement by turbidimetry, a measurement by nephelometry and a measurement by counting (by analysis and/or image processing or by flow in particular). This allows you to obtain reliable results quickly.
- step a. involves the addition of a diluent so as to dilute the biological sample, the ratio between the sample and the diluent being greater than or equal to 1:10.
- This dilution makes it possible in particular to reduce the viscosity of the medium to facilitate the capture of the molecule to be assayed, or in other words the formation of the first complexes.
- the diluent may contain agents to reduce the likelihood of magnetic particles clumping together.
- nonionic surfactants anionic surfactants, cationic surfactants, zwitterionic surfactants, proteins (albumin, casein, gelatin, antibodies in particular) or polymers (such as polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinyl alcohol).
- the application of the first magnetic field in step b. makes it possible to extract the first complexes from the liquid medium. This makes it particularly possible to work in complex media (in whole blood for example).
- the biological sample is whole blood.
- An advantage of the invention is that the steps of the method can be applied directly to a blood sample, without requiring washing and/or dilution.
- step b. involves removal of liquid medium and addition of reaction buffer.
- the reaction buffer may contain an anti-aggregation agent (nonionic surfactants, anionic surfactants, cationic surfactants, zwitterionic surfactants, proteins or polymers) and/or contain a cell lysing agent (saponins, quaternary ammoniums, sodium dodecyl sulphate notably). It is also possible to provide at least one wash between the removal of the liquid medium and the addition of the reaction buffer. This washing makes it possible to further increase the specificity of the method of the invention.
- the anti-aggregation agents make it possible to dissociate any aggregates of magnetic particles formed, while the cell lysing agent makes it possible to lyse potential cells which would not have been evacuated with the elimination of the liquid medium. It can be noted that unlike the methods of the prior art, the lysing agent does not require an additional dilution of the sample. In this embodiment, it is then possible to provide for a more or less long incubation so as to allow sufficient action of the agent(s) present in the reaction buffer.

- the present invention relates to the identification of an analyte in a liquid biological sample.
- the sample can be of any suitable type, such as for example a sample of bone marrow, cerebrospinal fluid, lymph, urine, or preferably a whole blood sample.
- the target analyte can be, for example, a protein, a nucleic acid or any other molecule of interest present in the sample.
- the target analyte is present in a greater or lesser quantity in the sample.
- a sample may comprise a target molecule present in a higher or lower number of copies.
- the target analyte concentration can be more or less important in the sample. This also applies to any other non-target analytes potentially present in the sample.
- the invention uses a technique for capturing the target analyte(s) by magnetic particles which have been functionalized at the surface with ligands specific to each target analyte. These may be particles of the type described above.
- the diameter of the magnetic particles used is generally between 5 nm and 10,000 nm, preferably between 100 nm and 500 nm.
- a first step a involves bringing the biological sample into contact with first magnetic particles
- FIG.1 shows a block diagram of the invention.
- this diagram generally shows an embodiment of the implementation of the method of the invention.
- a first step a. the first magnetic particles are mixed with a liquid biological sample in which there is or is not a target analyte to be assayed in the presence of a buffer.
- the biological sample may additionally, but need not, contain an interfering analyte.
- the biological sample is brought into contact with first magnetic particles.
- Each magnetic particle carries a receptor specific to a first attachment site of the target analyte so as to form first complexes by the binding of first magnetic particles with the target analyte when the latter is in the biological sample.
- This contact is accompanied when an interfering analyte is present in the sample, by the formation of interfering complexes by the non-specific binding of the interfering analyte to the first magnetic particles.
- no interfering complexes are formed.
- the [Fig.2] shows a biological sample comprising a liquid medium containing molecules.
- FIG.2] shows first magnetic particles 10 or PMI carrying specific receptors, here called first receptors 101. These first magnetic particles 10 are brought into contact with the molecule to be assayed present in the biological sample.
- the molecule to be assayed qualifies as a target analyte 20.
- the biological sample also comprises other species or molecules 40, 50 which may be, for example, soluble molecules, cells or particles (or interfering molecules 30 as will see later).
- step a has the consequence that the molecule 20 is captured by the first receptors 101.
- the first receptors 101 are specific to the target analyte 20.
- monoclonal antibodies or parts of antibodies are used in particular as receptors.
- the binding between each receptor and each target analyte results in the formation of complexes, which are referred to here as first CL complexes.
- the complexes are therefore formed by the first magnetic particles 10 associated with the target analytes 20. These complexes are dispersed in the liquid medium.
- the contacting of step a. can last about 10 minutes, preferably less than 5 minutes.
- provision may be made to mix or agitate the liquid medium during the incubation phase in order to increase the capture yield.
- Step a. may include the addition of a diluent so as to dilute the biological sample, or more particularly the liquid medium. Generally one will choose a dilution not exceeding a division by ten of the initial concentration (i.e. lOx).
- the method of the invention then provides a step b., in which a first magnetic field is applied.
- a first magnetic field is applied.
- uniting the complexes locally is meant an organization of the latter within the liquid medium. Depending on the applied magnetic field, the location may vary.
- step b. a main effect of this step b., and more particularly of the application of the magnetic field, is indeed the formation of interfering aggregates resulting from the agglomeration of interfering complexes between them, when the latter formed in step a. bringing the biological sample into contact with the first magnetic particles.
- this step provides for attracting the first magnetic particles towards a magnet. Consequently, the first complexes formed in step a., which essentially consist of the association of the first magnetic particles with the target analyte, are attracted towards the magnet. It follows that all the complexes formed in step a. are gathered locally against the magnet, or against an environment close to the magnet. This makes it possible to isolate the first complexes and separate them from the liquid medium. In other words, in this particular embodiment, the first complexes are extracted from the liquid medium of the biological sample. Logically, the separation of the first complexes from the liquid medium will only be complete when the liquid medium is evacuated later in the process. In this embodiment, step b. may provide for the maintenance of the magnetic field for a certain time, for example 5 to 10 minutes, preferably less than 5 minutes. This contributes to the good extraction of all the first complexes formed in step a. of the liquid medium.
- the [Eig.3] shows the magnetic particles 10 attracted or organized according to the field B o generated by a magnet.
- the first Cl complexes are assembled locally.
- a reaction buffer which is also liquid.
- the liquid medium is first evacuated from the reaction vessel, then the reaction buffer is poured into the vessel.
- a permanent magnet is generally provided which makes it possible to assemble the first complexes Cl carrying the target analyte 20 locally against the latter.
- Target analyte molecules 20, bound to receptors 101 are isolated and retained during the evacuation of the liquid medium from the biological sample.
- the reaction buffer is added in place of the liquid medium.
- one or more washes can be provided between the removal of the liquid medium and the addition of the reaction buffer.
- This washing makes it possible to increase the specificity of the method of the invention.
- the magnetic field can be maintained or cut off. In the latter case, it is necessary to reapply the magnetic field for a given time after each washing so as to again capture the magnetic particles in suspension.
- the reaction buffer may comprise one or more anti-aggregation agents and/or one or more cell lysing agents.
- the anti-aggregation agents make it possible to dissociate any aggregates or clusters of magnetic particles formed in step a. and/or in step b. The precision of the method of the invention is thus increased.
- the cell lysing agent makes it possible to lyse potential cells which would not have been evacuated with the elimination of the liquid medium described above. It can be noted that unlike the methods of the prior art, the lysing agent does not require an additional dilution of the sample.
- Step c. of the method of the invention comprises the cancellation of the magnetic field B o .
- the particles and complexes disperse in the liquid medium, as well as any aggregates formed.
- Step c. further comprises the addition in the liquid medium of second magnetic particles 11, or PM2, carrying a second receptor 111 specific to the target analyte 20.
- the second receptors 111 of the second magnetic particles 11 do not bind, or very little, at F target analyte 20. If necessary, stirring of the reaction medium can be provided.
- the target analytes 20 generally have a three-dimensional shape making it possible to choose specific receptors 101, 111, which are diversified.
- each first receptor 101 is specific to a first target analyte attachment site 20 and each second receptor 111 is specific to a second target analyte attachment site, different from the first.
- This makes it possible to increase the specificity of the method of the invention.
- This flexibility resulting from two attachment sites also makes it possible to quickly adapt the method of the invention to various needs, and in particular according to the nature of the application implemented. It is thus possible to diversify the receptors according to the target analyte to be assayed.
- the method of the invention then provides for a step d., in which a first quantity representative of the quantity of interfering aggregates in the liquid medium is measured, to identify the presence or absence of said interfering aggregates.
- a predefined threshold value When the measured quantity is zero or is below a predefined threshold value, there are no (or extremely few) interfering aggregates in the liquid medium. In this case, it can be assumed that there are no (or very few) interfering analytes in the biological sample.
- the measured quantity is non-zero or exceeds the predefined threshold value, there are interfering aggregates in the liquid medium, and therefore an interfering analyte in the biological sample.
- the measurement can in particular be carried out by turbidimetry, by nephelometry or by counting (by analysis and/or image processing or by flow in particular).
- the method of the invention then provides a step e., in which a second magnetic field is applied so as to form second complexes by binding the first complexes C1 to the second magnetic particles 11, or more precisely to the receptors 111 carried by the second magnetic particles.
- a second magnetic field is applied so as to form second complexes by binding the first complexes C1 to the second magnetic particles 11, or more precisely to the receptors 111 carried by the second magnetic particles.
- these second complexes are comparable to interfering aggregates, namely that they can be detected relatively easily by measurements optical density in particular.
- the [Fig.5] shows the second complexes 61 generated by the application of the second magnetic field B1.
- the target analyte 20 is sandwiched by the first and second receptors respectively carried by the first 10 and second 11 particles magnetic.
- this step e. aims to generate links or clusters of magnetic particles.
- the “sandwich” complexes or molecules, formed by the first 10 and second 11 magnetic particles bordering the target analyte 20, can be detected by various techniques including in particular an optical density measurement.
- the documents WO 2009/034271, FR2919390 and FR2959820 describe assay methods in which a series of cycles of applications and interruptions of a magnetic field is applied to the liquid reaction medium to cause the formation of links or clumps of magnetic particles during the reaction between magnetic particles and a target analyte.
- Each application of the field results in an increase in the number of analyte/magnetic particle bonds and each interruption of the field causes a dispersion of the unbound magnetic particles in the liquid medium.
- the number and/or the size of the links or clusters of bound particles increase. This proportionally increases the turbidity of the reaction medium.
- the measurements of the optical density of the medium after each break in the magnetic field thus make it possible to calculate the concentration of F target analyte in the sample.
- the first magnetic field B o applied during step b. may be identical to or different from the second magnetic field B1 applied in step e.
- the field B o of step b. must combine a large intensity (typically greater than 100 mT) with a large gradient in the direction of magnetization.
- a field B1 of moderate intensity typically less than 50 mT
- the application of the second magnetic field B1 includes preferably a plurality of magnetic pulses, separated by rest times.
- this step e. foresees a magnetization at 8 mT for 1 second, followed by three successive sequences of magnetizations and the following breaks: 15 mT for 60 seconds, 0 mT for 28 seconds, 8 mT for 1 second, 0 mT for 1 second:
- the different pulses at 8 mT for 1 second essentially allow a more precise reading of the state of aggregation of the PMI particles in the event of the presence of an interfering analyte.
- the pulse/rest series of 15 mT for 60 seconds, followed by rest (0 mT) for 28 seconds, followed by 8 mT for 1 second, followed by rest (0 mT) for 1 second essentially allows complexes to form.
- the second complexes 61 form aggregates which can be detected by measuring the optical density or by counting, for example. More generally, the second complexes can be detected due to the fact that the magnetic particles are aggregated together due to the binding of the target analyte to the two receptors (sandwich), whereas the signal of a first complex does not differ significantly from that of a free magnetic particle, given the difference in size (and/or optical index and/or magnetic moment) between a magnetic particle and a target analyte molecule.
- step f. of the method of the invention aims to determine the quantity of second complexes formed in order to deduce therefrom the quantity of target analytes present in the biological sample.
- step f. provides for the measurement of all the aggregates, i.e. all of the second complexes and, where applicable, of the interfering aggregates.
- this measurement makes it possible to determine the quantity of second complexes 61 formed in step e., and this in particular according to the measurement of interfering aggregates alone carried out beforehand in step d.
- the result of the measurement is then used to calculate the quantity of target analyte 20 present in the biological sample.
- the invention has the advantage of identifying not only the target analyte, but also an interfering analyte, or even several interfering analytes.
- Step a. includes in this case not only the formation of the first Cl complexes, but also the formation of interfering complexes Cint by the bond between the first magnetic particles 10 and an interfering analyte 30.
- the interfering complexes Cint are then dispersed in the liquid medium of the biological sample.
- step a the magnetic particles 10 carrying re-specific receptors 101 are brought into contact with the molecule to be assayed 20, in the presence of other species 30, 40, which may be soluble molecules, cells, particles, or other.
- species 30, 40 which may be soluble molecules, cells, particles, or other.
- One of these species molecules 30 in [Fig.6]
- Molecule 20 is nevertheless captured by receptors 101.
- step b. (see [Fig.7]), the first magnetic particles 10 are attracted or organized locally within the liquid medium according to the field B o generated by the magnet.
- the liquid medium is replaced by the reaction buffer.
- a permanent magnet (not shown in the drawings) which attracts the magnetic particles.
- the molecules 20 (target analyte) bound to the receptors 101 as well as the molecules 30 bound non-specifically to the magnetic particles 10 are brought together locally within the liquid medium.
- This local assembly at a given location within the liquid medium of the first Cl complexes and the interfering complexes Cint results in the formation of non-specific aggregates 60 (or interfering aggregates 60) between the first Cl complexes and the interfering complexes Cint.
- These non-specific aggregates can also be formed by the agglomeration of interfering Cint complexes with each other. More generally, non-specific aggregates form essentially identically to the complexes of interest, i.e. between a Cint complex and a nearby magnetic particle.
- step d allows the quantitative measurement of these in the liquid medium.
- step f. uses the measurement made in step d. to calculate the quantity of the specific aggregates constituted by the second complexes. For this purpose, the calculation takes into account both the measurement made in step d. and that performed in step f. It is thus possible to deduce the quantity of target analyte present in the biological sample.
- step d. limits the risk of interference that can lead to false positive results.
- step b. can lead to the formation of non-specific aggregates of first magnetic particles (PMI).
- PMI first magnetic particles
- step f. these aggregates would be detected during step f. only, and this without it being possible to distinguish specific aggregates, caused by the presence of the molecule to be assayed (target analyte), from non-specific aggregates, caused by the presence of another molecule (interfering analyte).
- step d. it is for example possible to determine an initial aggregation threshold beyond which no result will be returned, due to interference, thus avoiding returning erroneous results.
- An advantage of the invention is that the aggregation measurements during steps d. and F. can be combined to calculate an estimate of specific aggregation, excluding non-specific aggregation.
- step d it is also possible to stop the process of the invention after step d. If the quantity of non-specific aggregates measured is too high and/or exceeds a predefined sensitivity threshold, the method of the invention can be interrupted after carrying out the measurement of step d. It is then possible to repeat the method of the invention by selecting other receptors specific to the target analyte.
- the method described above is therefore stopped after step d, namely after the measurement of the first quantity representative of the quantity of interfering aggregates in the liquid medium.
- a threshold value can be set beyond which the results are not sufficiently sensitive. This avoids the execution of subsequent steps which become useless or at least unusable. Unnecessary additional costs and loss of time can thus be avoided.
- a PSA (prostate-specific antigen) assay test is implemented.

- the samples are assayed as follows:
- E86813M at 1% and 71.5 pL of 50 mM HEPES buffer, pH 7.5; F108 0.8%; 800mM NaCl; DTT 10mM; NaN3 0.09% for 2 min; The medium is magnetized for 3 min on a permanent magnet, and the supernatant is removed;
- the particles are taken up in 73.5 ⁇ l of 50 mM HEPES buffer, pH 7.5; F108
- the light intensity through the reaction medium illuminated by an RC-LED at 650 nm is measured and the difference in optical density before and after application of the last pulse of 8 mT intensity (Dodiff3) is used as the diff signal. 'interest.
- the signal measured as a function of the PCT concentration in the sample is independent of the nature of the latter, blood or plasma. This demonstrates the possibility of applying the described method to a whole blood sample.
- the first and second magnetic particles are introduced into the liquid medium simultaneously. Consequently, it is not an example according to the invention.
- Samples prepared include:
- the prepared samples include:
- the Cagg cycle (detailed above) is applied to this sample, then 3 ⁇ L of 1% w/v 214 particles are added to the medium and the Cagg cycle is applied again.
- the ADO 2 or Dodiff 3 2 indicators increase with the concentration of antibody introduced.
- the values of ADO 1 or Dodiff d can be used to detect the presence of aggregates prior to the application of the second cycle, linked to an interference in the sample.
- the application of a threshold chosen at 5 mOD makes it possible to detect the samples containing the in- terferent.
- the first and second magnetic particles (PMI and
- a dose-response curve is produced without interfering antibodies.
- the samples include:
- the samples include:
- the Dodiffo value does not vary significantly, and therefore does not make it possible to predict the presence of an interfering molecule.
- this molecule leads to an overestimation of the Dodiff 3 or ADO values.
- the sample containing no PSA would be titrated at approximately 5 nM, and the sample containing InM of PSA would be titrated at more than 8 nM.
- a dose-response curve is produced without interfering antibodies.
- the samples include:
- the Cagg cycle is applied to this sample, then 3 ⁇ l of 214 1% w/v particles are added to the middle and the Cagg cycle is again applied.
- a dose-response curve is then produced by adding an anti-mouse antibody.
- the samples include:
- the Cagg cycle is applied to this sample, then 3 ⁇ l of 1% w/v 214 particles are added to the medium and the Cagg cycle is again applied.
- the Dodiff 3 2 or ADO 2 values are higher, at a given PSA concentration, than in the case without interfering antibodies.
- the Dodiff 1 or ADO 1 measurement makes it possible to detect the presence of the interfering molecule. It is therefore possible to apply an alarm to avoid giving an erroneous result.
- FIG. 14 shows the differences in optical density (mOD) of Dodiff 1 , respectively with and without interfering antibody.
- the method of the invention can be carried out in a device of known type, if necessary adapted using the knowledge of those skilled in the art.
