Abstract Background: Suspension array technology has surpassed ELISA for automated, simultaneous detection and quantification of soluble biomarkers such as virus-specific antibodies. We describe assays in which antigens are attached to a lipid bilayer surrounding color-coded particles. Methods: We used layer-by-layer technology to establish a multiplex suspension array with distinguishable microbeads coated with authentic viral surfaces to catch and quantify virus-specific antibodies in a flow cytometric analysis. Antigenic surfaces were generated by chimeric and wild-type baculoviruses plus 2 different influenza A virus subtypes fused to a lipid bilayer surrounding distinctly colored particles. Specificity of binding of chosen antibodies and sera was detected by immunofluorescence. Results of multiplex analysis were compared with results of ELISA. Results: Titrations of virus-specific antibodies in the multiplex suspension array demonstrated specific binding to the viral surface proteins. The multiplex suspension array gave positive results for up to log 5–diluted primary antibodies with an ∼5- to 10-fold reduced dynamic range compared with the respective ELISA. Conclusions: The bead-based multiplex suspension array is customizable and easy to establish. By displaying native influenza A virus surfaces and recombinant HIV-1 epitopes, the new assay provides a tool for the detection of major viral infections in humans.

Abstract A highly sensitive D-shaped photonic crystal fiber sensor with circular lattice is proposed for external plasmonic sensing. The proposed design of plasmonic material in a D-shaped form effectively facilitates the excitation of surface plasmons and enhances the sensor performance. As a comparative study, two different plasmonic materials, gold and silver, are applied D-shapely on the fiber and the proposed sensor performance is numerically investigated and evaluated. Moreover, the optimized structural parameters such as air-hole diameters and the thickness of silver and gold layers are selected via simulation results which cause the highest sensitivity of 40000nm/RIU for the gold coated fiber using the wavelength interrogation method. Furthermore, the maximum figure of merit can reach 621.50RIU-1. Analytes with the refractive indices ranging from 1.34 to 1.39 can be detected by double-loss peak that is a more reliable method of simultaneous detection and verification of sensing characteristics. Due to its promising results, the proposed sensor can be widely useful in the area of chemical and biological sensing.

We have developed novel Bio-Plex assays for simultaneous detection ofBacillus anthracis, Yersinia pestis, Brucella spp., Francisella tularensis,andBurkholderia pseudomallei. Universal primers were used to amplify highly conserved region located within the 16S rRNA amplicon, followed by hybridized to pathogen-specific probes for identification of these five organisms. The other assay is based on multiplex PCR to simultaneously amplify five species-specific pathogen identification-targeted regions unique to individual pathogen. Both of the two arrays are validated to be flexible and sensitive for simultaneous detection of bioterrorism bacteria. However, universal primer PCR-based array could not identifyBacillus anthracis, Yersinia pestis,andBrucella spp.at the species level because of the high conservation of 16S rDNA of the same genus. The two suspension arrays can be utilized to detectBacillus anthracissterne spore andYersinia pestisEV76 from mimic “write powder” samples, they also proved that the suspension array system will be valuable tools for diagnosis of bacterial biothreat agents in environmental samples.

ABSTRACT An immunochromatographic test for the simultaneous detection of Babesia caballi- and B. equi-specific antibodies (BceICT) was developed using a recombinant B. caballi 48-kDa rhoptry protein (rBc48) and a recombinant truncated B. equi merozoite antigen 2 (rEMA-2t). An evaluation of the ability of the BceICT to detect antibodies in sera from uninfected horses and experimentally infected horses showed high sensitivities and specificities of 83.3% (10/12 sera) and 92.9% (52/56 sera), respectively, for the anti-B. caballi antibody and 94.1% (16/17 sera) and 88.2% (45/51 sera), respectively, for the anti-B. equi antibody. Results from the detection of antibodies in field-collected sera indicated that the BceICT results corresponded with those of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), showing 91.8% correspondence (67/73 sera) for B. caballi and 95.9% correspondence (70/73 sera) for B. equi, and that the BceICT results also corresponded with the ICT for B. caballi and for B. equi, both of which were 98.2% (55/56 sera). The comparable results of the ICT and ELISA and the simplicity and rapidity of the performance of the ICT suggest that the BceICT would be a feasible test for the simultaneous serodiagnosis of both agents of equine babesiosis in the field.
