Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the easy, reliable and economical determination of a prozone even in a case of large excess of an antigen by adding a standard sample to a sample to increase the concentration of a target component and by making a reaction performed in this state. CONSTITUTION:Both of a sample 8 of a humor containing an antigen or an antibody and a standard sample 5 containing a target component are injected separately into a reaction cell 10. Next, a reagent 16 is added to perform an antigen-antibody reaction. Subsequently, the intensity of a transmitted light or a scattered light in the end or process of the reaction is determined. Based on a measured value, the target component in the sample 8 is calculated and, at the same time, it is determined whether the region on the occasion is that of excess of the antigen or that of excess of the antibody. When the measured value is below a value of the absorbance or the intensity of the scattered light obtained on the occasion when the reagent 16 is added only to the standard sample 5 for measurement, in other words, the concentration of the target component is determined to be excessive in a large degree, and when the measured value is said value or above, the determination as to the region of excess of the antigen or the region of excess of the antibody is made on the basis of data on a pattern of advance of the reaction or data on the ratio of absorbance between two wavelengths. This method enables the easy, reliable and economical determination of a prozone.

Detailed Description of the Invention (IF Industrial Application Field) This invention is a complete determination of whether the antigen-antibody reaction is occurring in the antigen-excessive region or the antibody-excessive region (10-zone determination)
O P) Conventional technology A method for measuring a substance to be measured (antigen or antibody) in a body fluid is to react with a substance (antibody or antigen) capable of antigen-antibody reaction with the substance to be measured, and agglutination is caused by the resulting antigen-antibody combination. There is a way to fully measure the degree of

Examples of this include immunoturbidimetry in which a sample containing the above-mentioned substance to be measured is directly reacted with the above-mentioned substance capable of reacting with the antigen-antibody, and whole reagents in which the above-mentioned substance capable of reacting with the antigen-antibody is supported on an insoluble carrier. There is a method of acting on the specimen (the latter is latex agglutination reactivity). In either case, the degree of aggregation that has occurred is determined by irradiating the test liquid with a source and measuring the attenuation of the transmitted light intensity and the increase in the scattered light intensity.

For example, as shown in Figure 4, immunoglobulin IgGlj contained in serum, serum and a solution containing anti-1gG antibody are mixed, and the amount of antigen-antibody conjugate produced is measured by total absorbance at an appropriate wavelength. In particular, V is measured. The amount of the antigen-antibody conjugate produced increases as the IgG concentration increases, and the absorbance increases as the particle size of the conjugate increases. However, when the IgG concentration exceeds a certain value, the antigen-antibody crosslinking effect by the antigen disappears, so the particle size of the conjugate decreases, resulting in a decrease in absorbance. For this reason, the IgG fi degree for a certain absorbance is almost constant.
This is called the prozone phenomenon, and it is necessary to make a complete determination (prozone determination) as to whether the antigen-antibody reaction is occurring in the antigen-excessive region or the antibody-excessive region.

For example, as a method of pro zone determination, JP-A No. 60792
No. 69 discloses a method for determination by changing the amount of μ specimen. By reacting multiple times at different concentrations in this way, it can be determined whether the initial reaction is in the antigen-rich region or in the antibody-rich region, but this complicates the process, such as diluting the sample, and requires twice as many expensive reagents. There is also an economic problem. For this reason, add a standard solution containing the component to be measured (antigen or antibody) to the test solution after one reaction, and check whether the agglutination progresses further (absorbance increases). A method for determining whether the concentration is in the excess range has also been proposed, but in this case, it is necessary to collect the test solution or directly photometer the reaction tube and rinse it after obtaining the concentration measurement result. There are problems in that a reaction time is required for the determination, and if the measurement is automated, the equipment becomes complicated.

The most distinctive feature of the method of this invention is that a standard sample is added to the food, the concentration of the target component is increased, the reaction is carried out, and the absorbance or scattered light intensity is measured by adding a reagent only to the standard sample. Below this value, it is determined that the target component has a large degree of excess, and above that value, based on data on the pattern of reaction progress or data on the absorbance ratio of two wavelengths,
This is the point to judge whether it is an antigen-excessive area or an antibody-excessive area.
The figure shows the relationship between the IgG concentration in the serum and the absorbance when a reagent (IgG antiserum) was reacted with a certain amount of a standard sample (control serum) added to a certain amount of a diluted version of ``/de''.

Based on the luminous intensity A700 (7) ratio A340/A700 VC, it is determined whether it is in the antibody excess region or the antigen excess region. If one attempts to determine whether the antibody-excessive region or antigen-excessive region is present only by the absorbance ratio as shown in Figure 3, it is not possible to determine the ultra-high concentration region (6000 mg/de or more). Since it is determined in advance whether or not the concentration is ultra-high, the combination of both nine can cover the entire concentration range.

By doing so, it is possible to completely distinguish whether the reaction is in the antibody-excessive range or the antigen-excessive range. By selecting the concentration and amount of the standard sample to be added according to L7C, it becomes possible to easily, accurately, and economically perform prozone determination for all concentration ranges of the target component in the sample.

[Claims] 1. Irradiating light to a reaction solution containing an antigen-antibody conjugate produced by mixing a sample and a reagent or agglomerated particles resulting from an antigen-antibody reaction, and measuring its apparent absorbance (turbidity). However, in the method of measuring the concentration of an antigen or antibody, the absorbance of the test solution is measured by adding another standard sample to the sample and mixing it with a reagent, and then determining the concentration of the sample from the absorbance value. 1. A method for determining prozone in an immune reaction, comprising calculating the concentration of an antigen or antibody, and determining the prozone phenomenon of the antigen-antibody reaction. 2. Use the measured absorbance value of the reaction solution in which the standard sample and reagent are mixed as the criterion for ultra-high concentration samples, and if the absorbance value of the test solution in which the standard sample is added to the sample and the reagent is mixed is below the reference value. If so, the first determination method determines that the sample is an ultra-high concentration sample, and the second determination method determines whether the sample that is determined not to be an ultra-high concentration sample has a reaction in an antigen-excessive range or an antibody-excessive range. A method for determining prozone in an immune reaction, characterized in that the method for determining prozone in item 2 is used in combination.
