Rapid detection of TSH and T_4 by microfluidic chip-based immunoassays / 第三军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish an immunoassay based on microfluidic chip for detection of TSH and total T4.Methods The direct-write laser micromachining technology was used to fabricate microfluidic chip,luminol-H2O2 as luminator.This method and Roche E2010 electrochemiluminescence immunoassay were used to examine TSH by double-antibody sandwich method and total T4 by competitive principle in 50 serum samples collected at our outpatient clinic.Results The detection was completed within 25 min.Ten microliter sample and reagent was required.The detection range of TSH was 0-50 ?IU/ml and its average intraassay and interassay precision was 4.7% and 4.6% respectively and its average recovery rate was 95.3%.The detection range of T4 was 9.375-300 ng/ml,and its average intraassay and interassay precision was 4.9% and 4.7% respectively and its average recovery rate was 91.27%.Conclusion Rapid detection of TSH and T4 by microfluidic chip-based immunoassays is convenient,stable and accurate and of less reagent and time consuming.
