Photooxidation-induced fluorescence amplification system for an ultra-sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This report suggests a method of enhancing the sensitivity of chemifluorescence-based ELISA, using photooxidation-induced fluorescence amplification (PIFA). The PIFA utilized autocatalytic photooxidation of the chemifluorescent substrate, 10-acetyl 3,7-dihydroxyphenoxazine (ADHP, Amplex Red) to amplify the fluorescent product resorufin, initially oxidized by horse radish peroxidase (HRP). As the amplification rate is proportional to the initial level of resorufin, the level of antigen labeled by HRP is quantified by analyzing the profile of fluorescence intensity. The normalized profile was interpolated into an autocatalysis model, and the rate of increase at half-maximum time was quantified by the use of an amplification index (AI). The lower limit of detection, for resorufin or HRP, was less than one-tenth that of the plate reader. It requires only slight modification of the fluorescence reader and is fully compatible with conventional or commercial ELISA. When it is applied to a commercial ELISA kit for the detection of amyloid beta, it is verified that the PIFA assay enhanced the detection sensitivity by more than a factor of 10 and was compatible with a conventional 96-well ELISA assay kit. We anticipate this PIFA assay to be used in research for the detection of low levels of proteins and for the early diagnosis of various diseases with rare protein biomarkers, at ultra-low (pg/mL) concentrations.
