Objective:
To establish a new method for quantitative detection of house dust mite (HDM)-sIgE based on light-initiated chemiluminescence assay (LiCA).
Methods:
The assay was established after optimizing the reaction conditions, and the assay performance was evaluated according to the clinical guidelines. Further, the results of LiCA were compared with those from the ELISA and ImmunoCAP methods.
Results:
Coefficients of variation for repeatability ranged from 4.22% to 7.69%, and intermediate precision from 8.38% to 10.34%. The limit of blank (LoB), limit of detection (LoD), and limit of quantitation (LoQ) were 0.066 kUA/L, 0.165 kUA/L, and 0.171 kUA/L, respectively. The coefficient of correlation (r) between the results of LiCA and ELISA was 0.9263, and the r between the results of LiCA and ImmunoCAP was 0.8870.
Conclusions:
A HDM-sIgE quantitation assay based on LiCA was established, which could be used as a new reliable analytical tool for the determination of HDM-sIgE.
