The multiplex analysis of drug medicinals on the basis of technology of immunochips Phosphan.

Abstract

The new technique of multiplex qualitative analysis of narcotic, psychotropic remedies is developed on the basis of technology Phosphan using immunochips in the format of standard 96-wells plates, monoclonal antibodies to narcotic compounds and Pt-coproporphyrin as a long luminescent marker. The multiplex analysis was implemented using 20 mkl of human biological fluid (urine, blood serum or saliva) of 2 discs of 3.2 mm in diameter made of dried urine spot on paper. No preliminary processing or dilution of analyzed sample is required. The large range of measured concentrations was demonstrated under high sensitivity of analysis: 1 ng/ml of morphine and methadone, 0.5 ng/ml of barbiturates, 2 ng/ml of benzoylecgonine, methamphetamine, cannabinoids and benzodiazepines, 8 ng/ml amphetamine at variability of results no more than 15%. The approbation of technique was implemented using valid samples of urine (n=197) and blood serum (n=98) demonstrated that the technique permits to detect properly opiates, cocaine, cannabinoids, methadone, benzodiazepine, barbiturates and amphetamines at absence of false positive results in case of analysis of samples containing non-narcotic medications. The results of study of samples of dried urine spot on paper (n=50) well coincided with the results of analysis of fluid samples for all analyzed analytes. On the basis of proposed multiplex analysis a test-system Narc-Phosphan was developed for quantitative studying simultaneously up to 96 samples of various biological fluids, including as dried spots on paper. The analysis demonstrated high sensitivity, specificity and exactness during detection of the most prevailed narcotic substances that permits to propose this technique as a primary test during mass check-ups of population with purpose of detection of drug abuse, especially at the earlier stage.
