Abstract

Disclosed is a novel means of simultaneously detecting a human parvovirus B19 antigen and an IgM type anti-human parvovirus B19 antibody. The method of simultaneously detecting a human parvovirus B19 antigen and an IgM type anti-human parvovirus B19 antibody in a sample according to the present invention comprises bringing a sample into contact with (1) a 1st probe for detecting the parvovirus B19 antigen and (2) a 2nd probe for detecting the IgM type anti-parvovirus B19 antibody in the presence of a surfactant within the same reaction.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method of simultaneously detecting at least one parvovirus B19 antigen and at least one IgM type anti-parvovirus B19 antibody present in a sample, the method comprising bringing the sample into contact with
(1) a 1st probe for detecting the parvovirus B19 antigen, and
(2) a 2nd probe for detecting the IgM type anti-parvovirus B19 antibody, in the presence of at least one surfactant selected from the group consisting of an anionic surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant, and a cationic surfactant within the same reaction.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein: the anionic surfactant is an anionic surfactant having an alkyl group comprising 9 or more carbon atoms in the molecule; the amphoteric surfactant is an amphoteric surfactant having an alkyl group comprising 10 or more carbon atoms and a quaternary ammonium in the molecule; and the cationic surfactant is a cationic surfactant having an alkyl group comprising 10 or more carbon atoms and a quaternary ammonium in the molecule.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein: the anionic surfactant is an anionic surfactant having an alkyl group comprising 11 or more carbon atoms in the molecule; the amphoteric surfactant is an amphoteric surfactant having an alkyl group comprising 12 or more carbon atoms and a quaternary ammonium in the molecule; and the cationic surfactant is a cationic surfactant having an alkyl group comprising 12 or more carbon atoms and a quaternary ammonium in the molecule.

4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the surfactant is at least one selected from the group consisting of sodium dodecyl sulfate, sodium N-decanoyl sarcosinate, sodium N-lauroyl sarcosinate, sodium N-myristoyl sarcosinate, dodecylbenzenesulfonate, N-decyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate, N-dodecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate, N-tetradecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate, N-hexadecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate, decyltrimethylammonium bromide, dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide, tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, decyltrimethylammonium chloride, dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride, tetradecyltrimethylammonium chloride, and hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride.

5. The method according to any one of claims 1 and 2 to 4 ,
wherein the method is carried out by an immunoassay, wherein the 1st probe comprises at least one antibody which binds specifically to a parvovirus B19 antigen or an antigen-binding fragment thereof, and wherein the 2nd probe comprises at least one selected from: a polypeptide which contains the full length or a partial region of parvovirus B19 antigen and does not contain a region recognized by the 1st probe; and an anti-human IgM antibody which binds specifically to a human IgM type antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the immunoassay is a sandwich immunoassay.

7. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the 2nd probe comprises at least one polypeptide containing the full length or a partial region of the parvovirus B19 antigen.

8. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the parvovirus B19 antigen is VP2.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the 1st probe and the 2nd probe are used as solid phase probes immobilized on the same solid phase carrier or different solid phase carriers.

10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the 2nd probe is at least one polypeptide containing a partial region of the parvovirus B19 antigen, and wherein the method comprises bringing the sample into contact with the solid phase probes, and thereafter bringing the solid phase into contact with a labeled anti-parvovirus B19 antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof which binds to the parvovirus B19 antigen at a site other than where the 1st probe binds, and a labeled anti-human IgM antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof which binds specifically to a human IgM type antibody.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the 2nd probe does not contain a region recognized by the 1st probe and does not contain a region recognized by the labeled anti-parvovirus B19 antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof.

12. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the 2nd probe is anti-human IgM antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof and wherein the method comprises bringing the sample into contact with the solid phase probes and thereafter bringing the solid phase into contact with a labeled anti-parvovirus B19 antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof which binds to the parvovirus B19 antigen at a site other than where the 1st probe binds, and a labeled polypeptide containing a partial region of the parvovirus B19 antigen.

13. The method according to claim 12 , wherein the labeled polypeptide does not contain a region recognized by the 1st probe and does not contain a region recognized by the labeled anti-parvovirus B19 antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof.

14. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the sample is blood, serum, or plasma.

15. A kit for simultaneous detection of a parvovirus B19 antigen and an IgM type anti-parvovirus B19 antibody, which is used in the method according to claim 1 and comprises a 1st probe for detecting a parvovirus B19 antigen, a 2nd probe for detecting an IgM type anti-parvovirus B19 antibody, and at least one surfactant selected from the group consisting of an anionic surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant, and a cationic surfactant.
