Abstract:
:Evaluation of blood cells to determine immunologic status is becoming an important clinical application of flow cytometric analysis. For a wider use of immunophenotyping technology in clinical laboratories, the authors developed a rapid method to detect monoclonal antibody-labeled cells using forward light scatter/absorption clinical flow cytometers such as the Technicon H*1 and Technicon H*2 differential complete blood count analyzers. Calf-intestinal alkaline phosphatase was conjugated to mouse monoclonal antibodies (anti-CD2, CD3, CD4, CD8, CD19) for direct immunoenzymatic labeling. The combination of 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate and nitroblue-tetrazolium salt in diethanolamine buffer at pH 9.6 was selected as buffer/substrate to yield stable, insoluble, and very intense purplish-blue precipitates on the surface of the cells labeled with monoclonal antibody-alkaline phosphatase conjugates. Endogenous alkaline phosphatase in granulocytes was inhibited with levamisole. Early mild fixation of the white cells permitted incubation at 38 +/- 1 degrees C, which accelerated each step of the reaction without disrupting the cells throughout the procedure. The method is competitive with the direct immunofluorescence whole-blood method used on fluorescence flow cytometers in speed, sensitivity, and accuracy, as demonstrated with alkaline phosphatase-conjugated anti-CD2, CD3, CD4, CD8, CD19 monoclonal antibodies.
