Method for measuring modified nucleobase using guide probe, and kit therefor

The present invention provides a technique that suppresses a background value of a detection signal to construct an immunoassay system that detects a modified nucleobase. Specifically, the present invention provides a method for measuring a modified nucleobase including incubating a nucleic acid sample, a capture probe, and a solid phase probe in a solution and measuring a modified nucleobase using an antibody against the modified nucleobase in the obtained solution. The present invention also provides a kit for measuring a modified nucleobase including a capture probe, a solid phase probe, and an antibody against a modified nucleobase.

Method for measuring modified nucleobase using solid phase probe, and kit for same

The present invention provides a chemiluminescence enhancer treated to retain favorable dispersibility of fine solid carriers and stably exert a chemiluminescence enhancing action. The invention provides a chemiluminescence enhancer used for signal detection in a solid phase immunoassay using antigen or/and antibody immobilized onto fine solid carriers dispersible in a liquid medium, consisting of a water soluble macromolecular quaternary ammonium salt, a quaternary sulfonium salt or a quaternary phosphonium salt in order to enhance emission of light caused by an enzymatic reaction of a chemiluminescent substrate having dioxetane, wherein the chemiluminescence enhancer is given an aggregation inhibition treatment of the fine solid carriers by the treatment with an oxidizing agent or a reducing agent, and a chemiluminescence method and a kit using the chemiluminescence enhancer.

Chemiluminescence enhancer

A method for measuring chemiluminescence by which measurement of chemiluminescence can be carried out efficiently and accurately. In this method, an enzyme reaction of a chemiluminescent substrate in the presence of the enzyme carrying out the enzyme reaction and a chemiluminescence enhancer is conducted further in the presence of a chemiluminescence intensity-adjusting agent; and then the resulting chemiluminescence from the reaction product is measured.
