Improved ELISA for linoleate-derived diols in human plasma utilizing a polyHRP-based secondary tracer.

ABSTRACT: Dihydroxyoctadecenoic acids (DiHOMEs) are cytochrome P450 pathway-derived metabolites of linoleic acid, a highly abundant dietary fatty acid. They serve thermogenic functions at low concentrations but, at high concentrations, are involved in proinflammatory and deleterious outcomes in a wide range of pathologies. Hence, the development of a reliable analytical method is critical to elucidate their potential as biomarkers of health, and enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA)-based approaches offer unique benefits as alternatives to traditional liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) systems. Accordingly, an earlier ELISA for DiHOMEs was dramatically improved employing new secondary tracers and geared towards use in human plasma, a universal matrix in biomedical applications, as
