    Abstract Newer fluorometric methods for the analysis of biologically important compounds will be discussed: enzymes such as LDH, alkaline phosphatase, lipase and cholinesterase, and substrates such as glucose, urea and uric acid. These methods are based on the production of fluorescence initiated by an enzymic reaction. New reagentless fluorescence methods will be described for enzymes and substrates. These methods are highly precise (1%), fast (less than 1 minute) and involve no preparation of reagents. These methods, as adapted to clinical laboratory procedures, will be discussed.

    Abstract Preliminary studies utilizing biological substrates, such as enzymes and antibodies, as coatings for a piezoelectric crystal detector have proven successful. Immobilization of cholinesterase and parathion antibodies allows for the detection of organophosphorous pesticides at the ppb level with the cholinesterase coatings exhibiting a more specific response to parathion. Excellent reproducibilities, coating lifetimes, response times and selectivities are observed. This research is the first use of proteins as coatings for the direct assay of gaseous compounds, thus making this method an attractive alternative to some conventional techniques currently in use.

    Abstract Immobilized enzymes are becoming increasingly popular as analytical reagents because of their reusability, stability, and sensitivity to many inhibitors that would seriously interfere in assays using soluble enzymes. In this article, some of the kinetic and catalytic effects of immobilized enzymes in analysis will be discussed. The shift of the activity-pH profile curves on immobilization, the changes in temperature dependence. the inhibitor constants (K1). Michaelis constants (K m ), and the maximum velocity (Vmax). plus others, will be discussed. Finally, the use of these immobilized enzymes in fluorometric and electrochemical monitoring systems will be shown, and the future of these reagents in various areas will be discussed. A survey of enzyme electrodes will be presented as an example of the use of immobilized enzymes. Application of immobilized enzyme technology to the assay of BUN, glucose, uric acid, amino acids, ethanol. and other metabolites will be discussed.

    Abstract Lentiviral vectors (LVs) are important for cell therapy because of their capacity to stably modify the genome after integration. This study describes a novel and relatively simple approach to generate packaging cells and producer clones for self-inactivating (SIN) LVs pseudotyped with the vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (VSV-G). A novel gene regulation system, based on the combination of the cumate and coumermycin induction systems, was developed to ensure tight control for the expression of cytotoxic packaging elements. To accelerate clone isolation and ensure monoclonality, the packaging genes were transfected simultaneously into human embryonic kidney cells (293SF-3F6) previously engineered with the induction system, and clones were isolated after limiting dilution into nanowell arrays using a robotic cell picking instrument with scanning capability. The method's effectiveness to isolate colonies derived from single cells was demonstrated using mixed populations of cells labeled with two different fluorescent markers. Because the recipient cell line grew in suspension culture, and all the procedures were performed without serum, the resulting clones were readily adaptable to serum-free suspension culture. The best producer clone produced LVs expressing GFP at a titer of 2.3 × 10

    Abstract The rapid emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants is fueling the recent waves of the COVID-19 pandemic. Here, we assessed ACE2 binding and antigenicity of Mu (B.1.621) and A.2.5 Spikes. Both these variants carry some mutations shared by other emerging variants. Some of the pivotal mutations such as N501Y and E484K in the receptor-binding domain (RBD) detected in B.1.1.7 (Alpha), B.1.351 (Beta) and P.1 (Gamma) are now present within the Mu variant. Similarly, the L452R mutation of B.1.617.2 (Delta) variant is present in A.2.5. In this study, we observed that these Spike variants bound better to the ACE2 receptor in a temperature-dependent manner. Pseudoviral particles bearing the Spike of Mu were similarly neutralized by plasma from vaccinated individuals than those carrying the Beta (B.1.351) and Delta (B.1.617.2) Spikes. Altogether, our results indicate the importance of measuring critical parameters such as ACE2 interaction, plasma recognition and neutralization ability of each emerging variant.

    Abstract Enzyme electrodes for the amperometric measurement of urea were prepared by co-immobilizing l-glutamate dehydrogenase and urease onto an Immobilon-AV affinity membrane with attachment to a glassy carbon electrode. Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) was used as the electroactive species. The electrochemical oxidation of NADH was monitored at +1.0 V vs. Ag/AgCl. The enzyme immobilized electrode was linear over the range of 2.0 x 10(-5) to 2 x 10(-4)M. The response time of the electrode was 3 min and the optimum pH of enzyme immobilized membrane was pH 7.4-7.6 (Dulbecco's buffer solution). It was stable for at least two weeks and 50 assays. There were no interferences from other physiological material, except for high levels of ascorbic acid.
