Intended Use
The Gold Standard Diagnostics Antibody (ANA) Screen ELISA Test Kit is a qualitative assay for the detection of ANAs in human serum. The assay collectively detects in one well ANAs against double stranded DNA (dsDNA), SSA (Ro60 and Ro52), SSB (La), Sm, Sm/RNP, Scl-70, Jo-1, Ribosomal P, and Centromeric antibodies along with sera positive for immunofluorescent HEp-2 ANAs. The assay is used as an aid in the diagnosis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, Mixed Connective Tissue Disease, Sjögren's Syndrome, Progressive Systemic Sclerosis, and Polymyositis/Dermatomyositis, and should be used in conjunction with other laboratory tests and clinical findings.
Device Description
The assay requires a total of 90 minutes incubation time. The test uses antigen coated on microtiter wells. Serum is added to each well and incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. If antibodies are present they will bind to the antigen in the well. Unbound serum is removed by washing the wells three times. An HRP-conjugated anti-human IgG is then added to each well and incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. If antibody is present, it will bind to the antibody attached to the antigen on the well. The wells are again washed three times to remove any unbound conjugate. A TMB substrate is added to each well and incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature. If enzyme is present, it will react with the substrate to generate a colored product. After the incubation period, the reaction is stopped with a Stop Solution and the color intensity is measured spectrophotometrically.

Interfering Substances

The effect of potential interfering substances on samples using the Gold Standard Diagnostics Antinuclear Antibody (ANA) Screen ELISA Test was evaluated. Five samples across the reportable range of the assay were spiked with high levels of hemoglobin, bilirubin, rheumatoid factor, and triglycerides. The recommended concentrations from the guideline "Interference Testing In Clinical Chemistry" from the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute were used (CLSI EP7-A2). In addition, to assess the interference in the assay from heterophile antibody, two samples at differing unit values were assessed at three concentrations of a Heterophile (HAMA type 1). The tested substances did not affect the performance of the Gold Standard Diagnostics Anti-Nuclear Antibody (ANA) Screen ELISA Test. The results are summarized below:

| Substance | Concentration | Mean Percent
Inhibition |
|-------------------|---------------|----------------------------|
| Hemoglobin | 2 g/L | -2.1% |
| Bilirubin | 20 mg/dL | -3.0% |
| Rheumatoid Factor | 100 IU/mL | 8.8% |

| Heterophile | 65 µg/mL | 5.4% |
| Heterophile | 32.5 µg/mL | 2.2% |
| Heterophile | 16.25 µg/mL | -0.6% |

Prozone (Hook) Effect

To evaluate the hook effect on the Gold Standard Diagnostics Anti-Nuclear Antibody (ANA) Screen ELISA Test, sera with high antibody concentration were tested. Five samples with high antibody titers were diluted 1:100 to 1:12,000 and the ratio of the sample OD to cutoff OD was calculated. The maximum ratio calculated without observing a prozone effect was 12.

6(b2): Clinical Comparison:

The performance of the Gold Standard Diagnostics Anti-Nuclear Antibody (ANA) Screen ELISA assay was determined by conducting a correlation study tested at three different sites using a total of 848 samples. The samples were tested on both the Gold Standard Anti-Nuclear Antibody (ANA) Screen ELISA assay and a commercially available Anti-Nuclear Antibody ELISA test.

Precision

Assessment of the repeatability of the assay was performed on seven samples; three positive samples, one equivocal sample, and three negative samples. One positive sample was diluted with normal human serum to produce a concentration 20% above the positive ratio cutoff (approximately 1.4 U). One negative sample was diluted to 20% below the negative cutoff ratio (approximately 0.70 units). Each sample was tested twice a day for ten days. All the observed results matched the expected results. The results are summarized in the following table:

Expected Values

The expected value for a normal patient is a negative result. However, positive ANA results may be found in apparently healthy individuals. In a study, 12.4% of sera from normal healthy donors gave detectable ANA results (1). To evaluate the expected values, serum from 99 normal blood donors were tested. The mean unit value, standard deviation, and the unit value of the 950 percentile are summarized in the following table:

| | Number
Tested | Mean Units | SD | 95th
Percentile |
|------------------------|------------------|------------|------|--------------------|
| Normal Healthy Males | 51 | 0.62 | 0.24 | 1.09 |
| Normal Healthy Females | 48 | 0.55 | 0.13 | 0.82 |
