We report a fully automated sandwich immunoassay for the determination of human insulin using antibody-protein A-bacterial magnetic particle (BMP) complexes and an alkaline phosphatase-conjugated secondary antibody. BMPs bearing protein A-MagA inserted on the external surface of the membrane were prepared in the Magnetospirillum sp. AMB-1 transconjugant for a protein A-magA fusion gene. MagA protein was used as an anchor to attach protein A onto the membrane. Protein A-BMP complexes harvested from transconjugant AMB-1 were subsequently complexed with anti-human insulin antibodies by specific binding between the Z domain of protein A and the Fc component of IgG to form the antibody-protein A-BMP complexes. The complexes were quite monodisperse after the binding of the antibody. The BMPs' monodispersity resulted in high signal and low noise in the immunoassay. The luminescence intensity ((kilocounts/s)/microg of antibody) from antibody-protein A-BMP complexes after immunoreaction was higher than that from BMPs chemically conjugated to an antibody. This was explained by a difference in dispersion. The fully automated sandwich immunoassay system using antibody-protein A-BMP complexes made possible precise assays of human insulin in serum.
