Synergistic effects in antigen capture ELISA using three monoclonal antibodies directed at different epitopes of the same antigen.

Using a panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAb) against human myoglobin ( Mb), we have shown that the sensitivity of antigen-capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) may be significantly increased by the simultaneous immobilization on a solid phase of two co-operating capture mAbs. This method ("a three-site ELISA") uses three mAbs at different epitopes of the same antigen (two capture/one tracer), unlike the traditional two-site assay, using one capture and one tracer mAbs. We established two-site and three-site ELISA assays for Mb, by varying capture and tracer mAbs. Three-site assays showed 4-6 fold increase in sensitivity, if compared with two-site assays. The model for the effect has been suggested, according to which in three-site ELISA the high-affinity cyclic configurations may be formed by an antigen, two-capture mAbs and the surface of solid phase.[1]
