Abstract
Microbial asparaginase is an essential component of chemotherapy for the treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (cALL). Silent hypersensitivity reactions to this microbial enzyme need to be monitored accurately during treatment to avoid adverse effects of the drug and its silent inactivation. Here, we present a dual-response anti-asparaginase sensor that combines indirect SPR and fluorescence on a single chip to perform ELISA-type immunosensing, and correlate measurements with classical ELISA. Analysis of serum samples from children undergoing cALL therapy revealed a clear correlation between single-chip indirect SPR/fluorescence immunosensing and ELISA used in clinical settings (R2 > 0.9). We also report that the portable SPR/fluorescence system had a better sensitivity than classical ELISA to detect antibodies in clinical samples with low antigenicity. This work demonstrates the reliability of dual sensing for monitoring clinically relevant antibody titers in clinical serum samples.
