We have developed a sensitive, one-step, homogeneous open sandwich fluoroimmunoassay (OsFIA) based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and luminescent semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). In this FRET assay, estrogen receptor-β (ER-β) antigen was incubated with QD-labeled anti-ER-β monoclonal antibody and AF (Alexa Fluoro)-labeled anti-ER polyclonal antibody for 30 minutes, followed by FRET measurement. The dye separation distance was estimated to be between 80~90 a with ring above. The present method is rapid, simple and highly sensitive, and did not require the bound/free reagent separation steps and solid-phase carriers. A concentration as low as 0.05 nM (2.65 ng/ml) receptor was detected with linearity (R² greater than 0.990). In addition, the assay was performed with commercial antibodies. This assay provides a convenient alternative to conventional. laborious sandwich immunoassays.
