Popis: | [EN] beta-lactams (BLCs) are the most widely used antibiotics and consequently the most common cause of drug allergy in the world. The diagnosis of drug allergy is complex and represents a serious challenge that includes a wide variety of methods. In vitro tests are based on the immunological determination of allergen-specific IgE, but the tests in the market lack the required sensitivity and specificity. In addition, the large sample volume, long incubation times, and single-plex configuration have brought their use into question to complement the clinical information. Here, we report a chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) for multiparametric quantification of specific IgE to penicillin G, penicillin V, amoxicillin, and piperacillin, using histone H1 as a carrier. The developed CLIA allowed the determination of BLC-specific IgE below 0.1 IU/mL, thus allowing identification of allergic patients with better sensitivity, using only 25 mu L of a sample (serum). The immunoassay was successfully applied in a cohort of 140 human serum samples, showing good sensitivity (64.6%) as well as specificity (100%), which significantly improve the predictive character of existing BLC-allergy in vitro tests.
