Abstract:
:A sensitive, specific immunoassay for detection of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is described. The assay combined enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and solid-phase radioimmunoassay and is termed enzyme potentiated radioimmunoassay (EPRIA). HBsAg was quantitated by enzymatic conversion of L[14C]glutamic acid to 14CO2 and gamma-aminobutyric acid by glutamate decarboxylase (GDC) conjugated wih goat anti-HGs IgG. Conjugation of IgG and GDC was by a thiol-disulfide bond exchange reaction after reacting N-succinimidyl 3-(2-pyridyldithio) propionate (SPDP) with each reagent. A positive/negative ratio of 2.2 was established as significant by examination of 40 normal sera negative for HBsAg. This value was the mean cpm plus 3 standard deviations. By an identical statistical analysis of sensitivity, EPRIA was found to be approximately 100-fold more sensitive than Ausria II (Abbott Laboratories, North Chicago, IL).
