Chemiluminescence immunoassay is mainly an immunoassay technique that combines chemiluminescence analysis and immunoreaction, and uses professional instruments to detect trace amounts of antigens or antibodies. In the early diagnosis of many diseases, this method can be used and is extremely practical. Acridine ester and luminol belong to chemiluminescence reagents. But it contains two luminescence methods, acridine ester belongs to direct luminescence reagent, luminol belongs to indirect luminescence reagent. Today we will mainly learn about the direct method of light.

1. What is the direct luminescence method?
Direct chemiluminescence reagents can generate luminescence without the catalysis of enzymes in the process of luminescence immunoassay, because the chemical structural formula of acridinium ester has a group that can generate luminescence, which can be used for antigen-antibody labeling. Acridine esters are representative direct luminescent reagents.
2. Lighting principle
When the acridine ester is directly labeled with the antibody, it will be immune to the antibody sample. At this time, only the oxidant (H202) and NaOH are added to create an alkaline environment, and the luminescence reaction will occur. Record the photon energy generated per unit time, the integral of this part of the light is proportional to the amount of the antigen to be tested, and the content of the antigen to be tested can be calculated from the standard curve.
3. Advantages of direct luminescence method
1 The direct chemiluminescence is fast, the reagent is stable, and it is easy to store;
2 The marker is a small molecule, which has little effect on the steric site of the labeled antigen/antibody;
3 Good sensitivity and stable results.
