Abstract

Convenient and highly sensitive protein detection methods are in great demand for biomedical research and clinical diagnostics. Here, we present a magnetic bead-based proximity extension assay that achieves subfemtomolar sensitivity of proteins with minimal requirement for complicated equipment and technical skills. Our method utilizes well-optimized assay conditions and the triple antigen recognition enabled by capture antibody-coated magnetic beads and a pair of detection antibody-oligo conjugates for superior quantification capability. Using three inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, IL-8 and GM-CSF, as validation, our method showed orders-of-magnitude sensitivity improvement compared to conventional ELISA, homogeneous PEA and solid-phase PLA, and achieved limit of detections (LODs) close to digital ELISA.
