Control of monoclonal antibody (mAb) concentrations in serum is important for maintaining the safety and efficacy of these lifesaving therapeutics. Point-of-care (POC) quantification of therapeutic mAbs could ensure that patients have effective mAb levels without compromising safety. This work uses mimotope-functionalized microporous alumina affinity membranes in vertical flow assays for detection and quantitation of therapeutic mAbs. Selective capture of bevacizumab from 1000:1 diluted serum or plasma and binding of a fluorescently labelled anti-human IgG secondary antibody enable fluorescence-based analysis of bevacizumab at its therapeutically relevant concentration range of ∼50-300 μg/mL. The assay resu... More
