    This study introduces a rapid solid-phase enzyme immunoassay for measuring human serum ferritin. The enhanced method utilizes polyethylene glycol for faster reactions, enabling quick and stable ferritin level detection.

    Area of Science:

    • Biochemistry
    • Immunology
    • Clinical Chemistry

    Background:

    • Accurate measurement of human serum ferritin is crucial for diagnosing various conditions.
    • Existing immunoassays may require lengthy reaction times.
    • Development of faster and stable assay methods is needed.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and validate a rapid solid-phase enzyme immunoassay for human serum ferritin.
    • To evaluate the effect of polyethylene glycol on reaction kinetics.
    • To assess the assay's sensitivity, precision, and stability.

    Main Methods:

    • Solid-phase enzyme immunoassay utilizing a polyethylene glycol-enhanced reaction.
    • A second-site antibody conjugated with an enzyme was used to quantify bound ferritin.

  • Assay performance was evaluated for sensitivity, precision, and reagent stability.

    • Main Results:

    • The assay demonstrated a low detectable concentration of 5 micrograms/l for human serum ferritin.
    • Interassay coefficients of variation were 9.3% and 12.2% at 100 and 200 micrograms/l, respectively.
    • Polyethylene glycol significantly accelerated antigen-antibody complex formation, allowing assay completion in 5 hours.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed enzyme immunoassay provides a fast, stable, and sensitive method for human serum ferritin quantification.
    • Polyethylene glycol is effective in accelerating reaction kinetics for solid-phase immunoassays.
    • This assay is suitable for routine clinical laboratory use.
