Serum Marker Kits

HiLA features homogeneous reactions, no washing steps, and suitable matches the development needs of automated, portable POCT detection instruments. In the IVD field, homogeneous luminescence technology not only ensures the accuracy, reliability, and efficiency of magnetic particle chemiluminescence but also meets the needs of emergency testing. Compared to the commonly used fluorescence immunochromatography in POCT testing, homogeneous luminescence offers higher throughput, lower background, better repeatability, higher sensitivity, and a wider detection range, making it an ideal alternative technology.

HiLA VS Fluorescence Immunoassay

High Precision: In fluorescence immunochromatography, the sample first passes through the conjugate pad and chromatographs through capillary action, then reacts with the antibody fixed on the test line. This non-liquid phase reaction is insufficient and results are poorly reproducible. In HiLA detection, the sample immediately reacts with the detection reagents in a homogeneous system, resulting in a simple and sufficient reaction process with higher precision.

High Sensitivity: HiLA technology uses a nano-beads reaction mode, increasing the reaction surface area. Meanwhile, using 680nm long-wavelength excitation and 615 nm short-wavelength emission, combined with time-resolved fluorescence detection mode, effectively reduces background signal and enhances anti-interference capability, coupled with no washing, thereby improving detection sensitivity.

High Throughput: The rapid HiLA reaction and fast detection speed eliminate washing steps, making the instrument free from setting up a liquid system, allowing fully automated operation, and providing higher detection throughput compared to fluorescence immunochromatography.

IgG Kit [Borod Rang]

In the early stages of antibody drug development and during process development, quantitative detection of IgG is frequently required to ensure the quality of the final product in large-scale production. Therefore, accurate and rapid determination of IgG content is crucial for antibody drug R&D. Traditional ELISA methods face a series of challenges, including low detection throughput, lengthy experimental procedures, and high sample consumption.

The VDO HiLA IgG Detection Kit helps customers overcome these issues. This series of IgG detection kits can be used for the detection of total human & mouse IgG and various IgG subtypes in cell culture supernatants, serum, or purified samples. It meets the detection needs for multiple scenarios, such as IgG content measurement in early-stage research and high-yield cell line screening during process development.

Product advantages

• Broad Detection Range: Cell culture supernatants can be detected directly without the need for dilution. 

• No Sample Purification Required: Eliminates lengthy antibody purification steps, simplifying the workflow. 

• Easy and Fast Operation: Detection can be completed in as little as 30 minutes, meeting high-throughput requirements. 

• Micro-volume Detection: Requires only 2-10 µL of sample, suitable for the analysis of precious samples.

Principle of IgG Detection (Competitive Method)

The kit's core components include receptor beads conjugated with anti-IgG antibody (R1), biotinylated IgG (R2), and donor beads conjugated with streptavidin (R3).

In the detection system, the receptor beads conjugated with anti-IgG antibody are mixed and incubated with the biotinylated IgG to form an immune complex, which then reacts with the donor beads to form a luminescent complex.

Upon excitation with 680 nm light, the donor beads generate singlet oxygen, which diffuses to the receptor beads. The receptor beads then accept this energy and emit light at 615 nm.

When the sample contains IgG, it competitively binds to the anti-IgG antibody, hindering the formation of the luminescent complex. The concentration of IgG in the sample is inversely proportional to the light signal. The light signal is collected by a photosensor, and the IgG concentration in the sample is calculated using a mathematical fitting model.

Monoclonal Antibody Screening Kits

In the early-stage research and development of antibody drugs, efficient in vitro screening and functional assays are critical steps that determine the success of candidate molecules. Traditional methods (e.g., ELISA) are often time-consuming and operationally cumbersome, becoming a bottleneck in R&D efficiency. The VDO HiLA Platform provides an efficient and precise solution. It requires no washing steps, delivering highly sensitive quantitative results through a simple add-and-incubate procedure. The platform supports high-throughput detection, dramatically increasing throughput while achieving cost-effectiveness and efficiency gains. It reduces manual operations, shortens assay time, and accelerates the R&D process. In the antibody screening stage, VDO offers Mouse/Human Monoclonal Antibody Screening Kits, enabling rapid identification of positive clones from hybridoma supernatants. This significantly enhances screening efficiency and lays a solid foundation for subsequent development.

Product advantages

• Excellent Performance: High sensitivity, wide linear range, and reliable results. 

• Simple Operation: Requires only an add-and-incubate step, with results available in 1 hour.

• Micro-volume Detection: Requires only 2-10 µL of sample, suitable for the analysis of precious samples.

Comparison of Monoclonal Antibody Screening Methods

In monoclonal antibody screening, we compared the detection performance of the homogeneous luminescence assay and the ELISA method using the same antibody sample. The experimental results demonstrate that the homogeneous luminescence assay kit significantly outperforms the ELISA method in terms of both detection sensitivity and dynamic range, exhibiting superior overall detection performance.

Cytokine Kits

Cytokines are a group of low molecular weight (approximately 6-70kDa) soluble proteins secreted by various cells such as lymphocytes, macrophages, natural killer (NK) cells, mast cells, and stromal cells.^[1] Different cell types can secrete the same cytokine, and a single cytokine can act on various cell types^.[2] Cytokines play a crucial role in immune responses and are important mediators of the immune system's communication network. Cytokines are involved in the pathophysiological processes of viral and bacterial infections, as well as various diseases, including cancer, autoimmune diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and cytokine storms caused by cell therapies, which have gained significant attention recently. As a result, they have become a focus of medical research.

Application

VDO has launched several cytokine kits based on HiLA methods. These kits can quantitatively detect cytokine levels in cell culture supernatants or serum and serve as an efficient alternative to traditional methods such as ELISA. They are applicable in various research areas, including basic research, drug immunogenicity evaluation, vaccine development, and more.

Detection Principle

HiLA is a homogeneous immunoassay method based on energy transfer between acceptor and donor beads. This series of kits uses a dual antibody sandwich homogeneous chemiluminescence method to determine cytokine concentrations. Taking the Human IL-6 (hIL-6) kit as an example: The core components of the kit include acceptor beadsconjugated hIL-6 antibody 1 (R1), biotin-labeled hIL-6 antibody 2 (R2), and streptavidin conjugated to the donor beads (R3). In the detection system, acceptor beads-conjugated antibody 1 and biotin-labeled antibody 2 mix and incubate with the analyte, forming a dual antibody sandwich immune complex. This is then reacted with the donor bead to form a luminescent complex. When the distance between the two beads is less than 200 nm, excitation light causes the donor bead to produce singlet oxygen, which diffuses to the acceptor beads. The acceptor beads receives energy and emits light. The light signal is collected by a photodetector, and the concentration of hIL-6 in the sample is calculated by mathematical fitting. If hIL-6 is not present in the sample, no immune complex will form, and the distance between the beads will be greater than 200 nm, exceeding the transfer distance of singlet oxygen, so the acceptor beadsd will not emit light.

Detection Process

In the detection process, 10 μL of sample and pre-mixed R1 and R2 kits are added and incubated at 37°C for 15 minutes. After adding R3 kit in the dark, the mixture is incubated for an additional 10 minutes before detection. Compared to traditional ELISA kits, this detection process eliminates the need for repeated washing of plates, simplifies operations, and significantly reduces labor and time costs.
