Device Description
The Bio-Rad Serum Proteins by Capillary Electrophoresis is designed for use on the Bio-Rad BioFocus Capillary Electrophoresis Unit. The analytical system, consisting of instrument, CDM software and reagent kit, provides an assay for the separation and percent determination of protein fractions in human serum.
Like the Paragon CZE™ 2000 Clinical Capillary Electrophoresis System, Beckman Instruments, (K953077), the Bio-Rad Serum Proteins by Capillary Electrophoresis "Serum Proteins by CE" (SPCE) utilizes the principle of capillary fraction electrophoresis to separate human serum proteins into five distinct bands. The separation is performed at a pH above the isoelectric point of serum proteins, imparting a net negative charge to each protein that is dependent on the difference between the separation pH and the individual protein isoelectric point. When an electric field is applied across the ends of the capillary, the negatively charged proteins and internal marker migrate toward the anode at a velocity dependent upon the ratio of mass to charge. At this pH, the internal surface of the silica capillary is highly ionized, and the presence of positively charged ions in the separation buffer results in a bulk flow of fluid towards the cathode. This electroosmotic flow (EOF) runs counter to the direction of protein migration and is stronger than the anodic movement of the proteins. As a result, the proteins' net motion is towards the detection zone near the cathodic end of the capillary. Measurement of protein absorbance at 225 nm is then achieved through a transparent section of the silica capillary.
Sample processing consists of a one step dilution of a senum sample with a diluent containing an internal marker. The prepared samples, up to 28, are then placed into the BioFocus for analysis.
A Reference Sample is included as the first sample analyzed in each tray to verify system performance. Proteins are measured, as they exit the cathodic end of the capillary, by direct absorbance of the peotide bond at 225 nm. The Clinical Data Management System (CDM), (K942451), utilizes the time versus signal data along with the internal marker, which is used to convert migration time to electrophoretic mobility, to quantitate the percentage of each of the five protein fractions.

This electroosmotic flow (EOF) runs counter to the direction of protein migration and is stronger than the anodic movement of the proteins. As a result, the proteins' net motion is towards the detection zone near the cathodic end of the capillary. Measurement of protein absorbance at 225 nm is then achieved through a transparent section of the silica capillary.
Sample processing consists of a one step dilution of a senum sample with a diluent containing an internal marker. The prepared samples, up to 28, are then placed into the BioFocus for analysis.
A Reference Sample is included as the first sample analyzed in each tray to verify system performance. Proteins are measured, as they exit the cathodic end of the capillary, by direct absorbance of the peotide bond at 225 nm. The Clinical Data Management System (CDM), (K942451), utilizes the time versus signal data along with the internal marker, which is used to convert migration time to electrophoretic mobility, to quantitate the percentage of each of the five protein fractions.
The Beckman Paragon Electrophoresis Reagent Test Kit utilizes the principle of electrophoresis on an agaros gel support. When proteins are placed in wells on the agaros plate, they become negatively charged at the pH (8.6) of the buffer. When an electric field is applied, the proteins migrate towards the positive pole. At the end of the electrophoretic run the gel plate is place in an acetic acid-ethyl alcohol-water solution to fix the plate is removed from the acid-alcohol solution and dried. The dried placed in a solution of Paragon Blue Stain. Upon removal from the stain, the plate is again washed with acid-alcohol and dried. The plate, with the bands visible, is scanned at 600 nm in a desitometer and the percentage of each of the five fractions are calculated.
The performance of the Bio-Rad Serum Proteins by Capillary Electrophoresis was evaluated for precision, measuring range, and accuracy. The precision studies were done according to NCCLS Evaluation protocol, Vol. 12, No 4, EP5-T2, Appendix C, pp 31-39. Twenty samples each of normal and abnormal control were analyzed for mean area percent. The Within-Run % CV for the normal control averaged 5.8 for the five fractions and for the abnormal control, 4.7. The Between-Day % CV for the normal control averaged 5.7 for the five fractions and for the abnormal control, 5.5. The Total % CV for the normal control averaged 7.1 for the five fractions and for the abnormal control, 6.4. The measuring range was determined to be down to 1 g/d/L.

The correlation study, to determine accuracy, of Bio-Rad Serum Proteins by Capillary Electrophoresis and the Beckman Paragon Gel Elctrophoresis kit followed NCCLS Document FP9-T. The "r" for the five fractions averaged 0.813.
When comparing these two techniques, differences between them have to be considered when evaluating the correlation data. Capillary electrophoresis is not effected by protein agoregation due to gel porosity characteristics, nor by the problem of cryoprecipitation at the application point between the beta and gamma zones nor by the variability of protein staining as a means of detection. With capillary electrophoresis, absorbance detection of the peptide bond at 225 nm provides a more accurate method of relative percent quantitation. The weak correlation for the Beta fraction is consistent with literature reports concerning aggregation and precipitation of lipoproteins in agarose gels. This phenomenon is not seen with the SPCE kit.
When considering the technology differences between the two methods, it can be concluded from the correlation study and similarities of the general characteristics of the two assays (Appendix C), the Bio-Rad Serum Proteins by Capillary Electrophoresis and the Beckman Paragon Electrophoresis Reagent Test Kit are substantially equivalent. Based on the establishment of substantial equivalence, the safety and effectiveness of the Bio-Rad Serum Proteins by Capillary Electrophoresis is confirmed.
