Abstract:
Influenza B virus (IBV) is highly contagious, spreads rapidly, and causes seasonal epidemic respiratory disease in the human population, especially in immunocompromised people and young children. Clinical manifestations in this high-risk population are often more severe than in immunocompetent hosts and sometimes atypical. Therefore, rapid, and accurate detection of IBV is important. Methods An amplified luminescent proximity homogeneous assay linked immunosorbent assay (AlphaLISA) was developed for detection of IBV by optimizing the ratio of IBV antibody-labeled receptor beads, streptavidin-conjugated donor beads and biotinylated IBV antibody, as well as the optimal temperature and time conditions for incubation. Assay sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility were evaluated. A total of 228 throat swab samples and inactivated influenza B virus were tested by AlphaLISA and lateral flow colloidal gold-based immunoassay (LFIA). Results AlphaLISA produced the best results for detection of inactivated influenza B virus when IBV antibody-labeled acceptor beads were 50 μg/ mL, streptavidin-conjugated donor beads were 40 μg/mL, and biotinylated IBV antibody was 0.5 μg/mL at 37°C for 15–10 min. Under these conditions, AlphaLISA had a limit of detection of 0.24 ng/mL for the detection of influenza B nucleoprotein, did not cross react with other common respiratory viruses, and showed good reproducibility with inter-assay coefficient of variation (CV) and intra-assay CV & lt; 5%. The results of 228 clinical throat swab samples showed good agreement between AlphaLISA and LFIA (Kappa = 0.982), and AlphaLISA showed better sensitivity than LFIA for detecting inactivated influenza B virus. Conclusion AlphaLISA showed higher sensitivity and throughput in the detection of IBV and can be used for IBV diagnosis and epidemic control.
