We investigated the use of a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor using an antibody (Ab) labeled with Au-nanoparticle (Ab-AuNP conjugate). As clenbuterol is a small molecule, an indirect competitive inhibition immunoassay was used. The SPR immunoassay using Ab-AuNP conjugate had an extremely low limit of the detection (LOD) with a magnitude of 0.05 ppt (0.05 pg mL−1), which was 40 times lower than that of unlabeled Ab. To identify the key factor in determining the LOD of the indirect competitive inhibition immunoassay, affinity constants of the surface immunoreaction (K1) and of the premixed solution (αK2) were evaluated. We found that the dielectric constant change due to AuNP labeling of Ab did not affect on the affinity constants, because all the amplification magnitude terms canceled out in the equations. Thus, theK1and αK2values were determined to 3.0×1011M−1and 2.9×1012M−1, respectively, which were three and four orders of magnitude higher, respectively, than those of unlabeled Ab. The simulation plot of LOD with respect toK1and αK2showed that aK1one order of magnitude lower than αK2produced a ppt level LOD. Because the affinity constants are determined by the molar concentrations of reactant and product, the molar mass of the Ab or Ab-AuNP conjugate in the sample solution containing 1 ppm (1 μg mL−1) highly affects the constants. Consequently, molar mass adjustment can be used to adjust the LOD in an indirect competitive inhibition immunoassay as needed for a practical application.
