Chemiluminescent acridinium-9-carboxamide boronic acid probes: application to a homogeneous glycated hemoglobin assay.

Chemiluminescent acridinium-9-carboxamide probes containing 1, 3, 9, and 27 phenylboronic acids were prepared and their chemiluminescent properties evaluated. The relative chemiluminescent signal from the probes varied from 4 to 0.83 x 10(19)counts/mol across the series, while the apparent affinity of the probes for the diabetes marker glycated hemoglobin increased from 211 to 0.43 microM. The dose-dependent modulation of the chemiluminescent intensity of the probes upon binding was used to demonstrate a homogeneous assay for glycated hemoglobin.

Intrinsic factor-mediated modulation of cyanocobalamin-N-sulfonyl-acridinium-9-carboxamide chemiluminescence.

Two cyanocobalamin-N-sulfonyl-acridinium-9-carboxamides with linkage through the N(10) or 9-position were prepared from B(12)-e-carboxylic acid. The noncovalent association of intrinsic factor with these ligands resulted in specific modulation of the associated chemiluminescence signal either by quenching or changing the emission profile. Either effect was sufficient to formulate a homogeneous assay to detect vitamin B(12) in buffer.

Chemiluminescence quenching of pteroic acid-N-sulfonyl-acridinium-9-carboxamide conjugates by folate binding protein.

N(10)-Trifluoroacetylpteroic acid was conjugated to chemiluminescent N-sulfonylacridinium-9-carboxamide labels at the N(10) or 9-position carboxamide. Upon binding to folate binding protein the light output of the N(10) derivative (9) was quenched up to 62% upon triggering with basic peroxide, while the 9-position carboxamide conjugate (7) was quenched only 12%. The utility of this effect was demonstrated in a model homogeneous chemiluminescent assay for folic acid.

Regiodependent luminescence quenching of biotinylated N-sulfonyl-acridinium-9-carboxamides by avidin.

[reaction: see text] Biotin was conjugated to chemiluminescent N-sulfonylacridinium-9-carboxamides at the N-10 or 9-position carboxamide. Upon binding to avidin, the light output of the N-10 derivative (8) was quenched up to 92% upon triggering with basic peroxide, while the 9-position carboxamide conjugate (9) was quenched only 33%. The utility of this effect was demonstrated in a model homogeneous chemiluminescence assay.

Dual analyte detection using tandem flash luminescence.

A heterogeneous, dual analyte-binding assay which makes use of the flash luminescence from both aequorin and an acridinium-9-carboxamide label is presented. The signal generating species were triggered both differentially and sequentially using Ca(2+) followed by basic peroxide. Both signals were resolved readily using a single photomultiplier tube without the need for multiwavelength detection. To demonstrate the tandem luminescence concept in a model assay system, dose-response curves for two analytes, biotinylated BSA and myoglobin, were generated using a competitive binding format. Because of the relatively short assay time and the well-resolved signals, this format will be useful in the development of dual analyte high-throughput assays.
