【Abstract】
Diabetes is a common metabolic disorder disease, which is often detected by fasting blood glucose and oral glucose tolerance test in clinic. As a kind of glycosylated hemoglobin, HbA1c has been gradually recommended as one of the diagnostic criteria for diabetes in recent years. And there have been various methods for detecting HbA1c, each with its own advantages and disadvantages .In this study, we selected and prepared the anti-human HbA1c-6C2 monoclonal antibodies with high purity and specificity, then adopted it to detect HbA1c and took methodological evaluation based on the latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay. Results showed that excellent linearity was observed within the HbA1c concentration range of 3.8% to 14.0%, and CV was less than 1.5% for repeated detection at high and low concentration levels.There was a strong correlation with HPLC during methodological comparison. In general, it had the advantages of good linearity, high precision, stability and accuracy, which revealed a favourable detection effect.

1 Introduction
Diabetes is a group of metabolic disorders caused by abnormal glucose metabolism. It is a hyperglycemia caused by reduced utilization or excessive production of glucose, which can cause coronary artery disease, kidney disease, retinopathy and other complications.[1] As of 2021, the number of patients is about 537 million in global and about 140.9 million in China, which is still increasing.[2]For decades, the diagnosis of diabetes has been based on blood glucose standards, including fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and oral glucose tolerance test (75g OGTT). Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a widely-used chronic blood glucose indicator and can reflect the average blood glucose concentration in the past 2 to 3 months. In recent years, with the continuous standardization of its measurement, it has been recommended by international expert committees as one of the criteria for diagnosing diabetes, with a diagnostic threshold of 6.5% (NGSP units).[3]
HbA1c is a type of glycated hemoglobin (GHb) formed by the condensation of the aldehyde group of glucose with the amino terminal valine residue of the β - chain of HbA. The two firstly form an unstable aldehyde imine (i.e. Schiff base), which then dissociates or undergoes Amadori molecular rearrangement to form a stable ketamine compound.[4, 5] According to reports, there are various methods for detecting HbA1c ,Including high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)[6] , enzyme assay[7], affinity chromatography[8], electrochemical method[9],etc. [5] Among them, HPLC has been used as the gold standard for HbA1c level determination and is currently the most precise and accurate method, but it requires large and relatively expensive equipment.[10]In this study, we screened and prepared a type of highly specific mouse anti-human HbA1c-6C2 antibodies based on monoclonal technology, adopted the latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay (LEIBA) to detect human HbA1c, and then conduct methodological evaluation on it.

2 Materials and methods
2.1 Sample collection

2.2 Preparation of antibodies
Glycosylate the amino group on the N-terminal valine of hemoglobin beta polypeptide chain with glucose C1 and conjugate with KLH and BSA as immunogens. Five female BALB/c mice, aged 6-8 weeks ,were immunized three times at multiple subcutaneous sites with the immunogens.The first immunization was emulsified with complete Freund's adjuvant , followed by two subsequent immunizations with incomplete Freund's adjuvant emulsion, with a 3-week interval between each immunization. Spleen cells from immune enhanced BALB/c mouse were fused with SP2/0 cells using PEG4000 and screened. The cell culture supernatant on the 7th day after fusion was collected for ELISA detection. Positive hybridoma cells were selected for amplification, and subclones were obtained by extreme dilution method. The clones in large quantities were injected into the abdominal cavity of the mice to produce monoclonal antibodies. Then the extracted mouse ascites were centrifuged and the supernatant was collected for purification. Screening and preparation of anti-mouse anti-human HbA1c antibodies based on the similar principles.

2.3 Reagents
Reagent 1 consists of latex microspheres, tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane and preservatives, while reagent 2 consists of tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane, preservatives, PEG6000 (polyethylene glycol 6000), sucrose, sodium chloride, goat anti-mouse IgG-2B4 antibody and mouse anti-human HbA1c-6C2 antibody. Among them, Tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane and PEG6000 were purchased from Suzhou Yake Technology Co., Ltd. Sucrose，sodium chloride sodium phosphate dibasic dihydrate and disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate were purchased from China National Pharmaceutical Group Chemical Reagent Co., Ltd. Latex microspheres were purchased from Polysphere. The preservative (ProClin300) was purchased from Sigma Aldrich.

2.4 Characterization of antibodies
2.4.1 Purity
To analyse the purity of the antibodies we selected, we applied HPLC in this study . The sample was diluted to 1.5mg/ml with a mobile phase. And the analytical chromatographic separations were carried out on Elite Agerss-D1100 HPLC system with a mobile phase consisting of sodium phosphate dibasic dihydrate-disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate-sodium chloride-water mixture at a flow rate of 0.3ml/min and a column temperature of 10-30 ℃. The injection volume was 20μl and the detection wavelength we set was at 280nm.

2.4.2 Specificity
Adopt ELISA method to characterize the screened antibodies. After overnight encapsulation of 5 μ g/ml human Hb and human HbA1c at 4 ℃, 1% BSA was added and blocked at 37 ℃ for 2 hours. Dilute the mouse anti-human HbA1c-6C2 antibody obtained by 1ug/ul screening at a ratio of 1:10000 and add it. Dilute each well in a multiple ratio and incubate at 37 ° C for 2 hours. Then add goat anti-mouse HRP at a ratio of 1:2000 and incubate at 37 ° C for 1 hour. After 3 minutes of dark staining, measure Hb and HbA1c activity separately. Use the same method to detect anti-human HbA1c-3A7 antibody and anti-human Hb-1A1 antibody for comparative analysis.
Coat with 2 μ g/ml of IgG from four different species including mice, rabbits, humans, and goats as antigens, add goat anti-mouse（GAM） IgG-2B4 antibody and incubate at 37 ℃ for 1 hour to detect its activity. Use the same method to detect GAM IgG-2H4 antibody, GAM IgG-2H2 antibody and GAM polyclonal antibody for comparative analysis.
Western blot analysis was performed to obtain immunoblotting of hemoglobin’ expression and detect antibody specificity, using naturally extracted glycated hemoglobin and normal hemoglobin as substrates, with the mouse anti-human HbA1c-6C2 antibody and the mouse anti -human Hb-1A1 antibody serving as the primary antibody separately,and the goat anti-mouse IgG-2B4 antibody adopted as the secondary antibody.

2.5 Instruments and methods
In this study, the experiment was conducted on a Beckman AU480 biochemical analyzer. When adding reagent 1 to the sample to be tested, the glycated hemoglobin was bound to the latex microspheres. After adding reagent 2, glycated hemoglobin binds to specific antibodies, forming latex microspher-anti-HbA1c antibody complexes. Then, the bind of sheep-anti-mouse IgG-2B4 antibody and glycated hemoglobin antibodies caused the aggregation of latex microspheres. These complexes led to the scattering of the irradiation beam, and the intensity of the scattered light is proportional to the concentration of HbA1c in the sample.

2.6 Evaluation of methodology
2.6.1 Calibration curve
Use a standard sample with a known percentage concentration of glycated hemoglobin to obtain absorbance values according to the steps mentioned in section 2.3. Plot a standard curve with percentage concentration as the x-axis and absorbance values as the y-axis.

2.6.2 Blank absorbance
Use physiological saline as a blank sample to make a detection and record the absorbance at startup (A1) and the absorbance after about 5 minutes (A2). And the value of A2 is the blank absorbance value.

2.6.3 Linearity
Dilute high concentration samples close to the upper limit of the linear interval with low concentration samples close to the lower limit of the linear interval, with dilution concentrations of 3.9%, 5.5%, 7.3%, 9.2%, 11.3%, and 13.7% respectively. Perform 3 repeated tests on the diluted sample and take the average as the test result. Evaluate linearity by performing linear regression analysis on the detection values and theoretical values and calculating the Spearman correlation coefficient.

2.6.4 Precision
Under repeatability conditions, select samples possessing two different concentration levels within the linear range: high concentration (not less than 30% of the reference range) and low concentration (within the reference range). Repeat the detection 20 times, take the average of the detection results and calculate the standard deviation (SD) and coefficient of variation (CV).

2.6.5 Stability
Store the reagents in a refrigerator at 2-8 ℃ for at least 30 days, and take samples at 1, 4, 7, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, and 45 days from the date of storage. Follow the reference detection method for testing and record the results. After each sampling, store the reagents back at 2-8 ℃.

2.6.6 Methodology comparison
Select 50 blood samples, which cover a wide range of glycated hemoglobin concentrations. The samples will be tested three times on the Beckman AU480 biochemical analyzer and the Elite Agerss-D1100 HPLC system respectively, and the average value will be taken for comparative analysis. Correlation analysis was conducted between the results obtained by latex enhanced immunoturbidimetry and HPLC to obtain linear correlation coefficients and linear regression equations, in order to evaluate their comparability.

3 Results
3.1 Preparation of the antibodies.
Following the steps in section 2.2, after four subclone screening, one positive monoclonal hybridoma was selected and named 6C2. It was injected into the peritoneal cavity of mice to obtain ascites. Meanwhile, purified cell culture supernatant and ascites were used to obtain mouse anti-human HbA1c-6C2 monoclonal antibody (mAb). Further identification revealed that the monoclonal antibody subtype was IgG1. Similarly, using the aforementioned antibody as an immunogen, a goat anti-mouse（GAM） IgG-2B4 monoclonal antibody was obtained.

3.2 Characterization of antibodies
3.2.1 Purity
By using HPLC method to analyze the purity of the prepared antibodies, as shown in Fig.1, only one main peak was observed for both mouse anti-human HbA1c-6C2 antibody and goat anti-mouse IgG-2B4 antibody, indicating that they are intact antibodies. The peak areas were 8136 mAU. s and 7142 mAU. s, respectively, with peak area ratios of 95.57% and 96.89%, indicating that both have high purity.

3.2.2 Specificity
As shown in the Fig.2, the anti-human HbA1c-3A7 antibody has a cross reaction with Hb and the anti-human Hb-1A1 antibody binds to both HbA1c and Hb, while the anti-human HbA1c-6C2 antibody can bind well to HbA1c instead of Hb. With increasing dilution ratio, the HbA1c activity measured relatively stable, with a potency of 256w. This proves that the anti-human HbA1c-6C2 antibody has high specificity for HbA1c and can eliminate interference from Hb in its detection.
When characterizing the goat anti-mouse IgG-2B4 antibody, the results showed that the antibody could specifically bind to mouse IgG and did not cross react with other species (Fig.3A). Although the GAM IgG-2H4 antibody and GAM IgG-2H2 antibody didn’t bind to IgG antibodies of rabbit, human, sheep and other species and have good specificity, their sensitivity is not as good as the GAM IgG-2B4 antibody (Fig.3B and C). The GAM polyclonal antibody has cross reaction with IgG antibodies of multiple species (Fig.3D). Therefore, it can be seen that the goat anti-mouse IgG-2B4 antibody has high specificity and sensitivity, which can avoid interference caused by cross reaction with other species’ IgG antibodies.
In addition, Western Blot analysis showed that when the secondary antibody was goat anti-mouse IgG-2B4 antibody and remained unchanged, if the primary antibody was mouse anti-human Hb-1A1 antibody, both Hb and HbA1c bands appeared simultaneously, while the primary antibody was mouse anti-human HbA1c-6C2 antibody, only HbA1c bands appeared (Fig.4A and B).It further proved that the mouse anti-human HbA1c-6C2 antibody does not bind to Hb and has high specificity for HbA1c.

3.3 Evaluation of methodology
The blank absorbance of the reagent at a wavelength of 660nm is 0.3768, which is less than 1.5. The linearity shows a strong correlation (=0.99) within the concentration range of 3.8% to 14.0%, with linear absolute deviations not exceeding ± 0.5% and linear relative deviations not exceeding ± 7% (NGSP units) (Fig.5B). The detection CV at low concentration levels is 1.438% and the one at high concentration levels is 0.686%, indicating that it has good precision (Table 1). As shown in the Fig.5C, this method has good stability and the detection results are still relatively stable even after the reagents are stored for 30 days under the same conditions. The correlation and regression studies used for method comparison showed a good linear relationship between latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay and HPLC(=0.99), with an intercept of 0.07075 and a slope of 0.9895 (as shown in Fig.5D).

4 Discussion
Diabetes is a group of hyperglycemia caused by abnormal glucose metabolism, which can lead to a variety of complications. FPG and OGTT are often used to clinical diagnose diabetes. In recent years, with the standardization of HbA1c detection, HbA1c has gradually been used in the diagnosis of diabetes, becoming an effective tool for monitoring long-term blood glucose control, with a diagnostic threshold of 6.5% (NGSP units).[11]
Currently, multiple methods have been used for the detection of HbA1c. The testing methods selected by clinical laboratories should not only meet the requirements of simplicity, speed, batch testing, and timely reporting, but also ensure the quality of the testing results. The long-term use of methods requires strict quality management, including laboratory certification, specialized internal control design, and participation in external quality assessment (EQA) programs.[12, 13] The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends that laboratories only use testing methods that are certified and traceable to DCCT GHB references. For methods performed in the laboratory, the CV should be less than 1.5% and ideally there should be no measurable deviation. [12]Based on this, it is of great significance to evaluate whether the analytical performance of immunoturbidimetry meets the requirements. In this study, we screened and prepared a kind of mouse anti-human HbA1c antibody possessing high purity and specificity. We had verified its performance and conducted methodological evaluation on the latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay. HPLC, ELISA and WB were adopted to characterize the antibodies and the results proved that mouse anti-human HbA1c antibodies can specifically bind to HbA1c without reacting with Hb. During conducting methodological evaluation, the CV of indoor tests at high and low concentration levels were both less than 1.5% (NGSP units) , indicating good precision and meeting the precision requirements of medical diagnosis and clinical practice. At the same time, there is a strong correlation within 3.8%~14.0% concentration range, and the linear deviation meets the requirements. In addition, a strong linear relationship has been shown between this method and HPLC, with a slope of 0.9895, intercept of 0.07075, and correlation coefficient of 0.99, which reflected the good detection performance of this method. Besides,it also possessed good stability. After the reagent we made was maintained for 30 days under the suitable conditions, the detection results were still relatively accurate.
In the clinical detection of HbA1c, triglycerides, uric acid, ethanol, and other potential interfering substances, as well as hemoglobin variations such as HbE, may also interfere with its detection. [6, 14]However, we have not evaluated the interference of these substances on HbA1c’s detection, which is a limitation of our research and will be considered in the future.
Overall, this study prepared a highly specific and high-purity mouse anti-human HbA1c antibody, and used latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay to detect human HbA1c. It has good linearity, precision, accuracy and stability, which can help clinical doctors better monitor patients' blood glucose levels.References

【Abstract】
Diabetes is a common metabolic disorder disease, which is often detected by fasting blood glucose and oral glucose tolerance test in clinic. As a kind of glycosylated hemoglobin, HbA1c has been gradually recommended as one of the diagnostic criteria for diabetes in recent years. And there have been various methods for detecting HbA1c, each with its own advantages and disadvantages .In this study, we selected and prepared the anti-human HbA1c-6C2 monoclonal antibodies with high purity and specificity, then adopted it to detect HbA1c and took methodological evaluation based on the latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay. Results showed that excellent linearity was observed within the HbA1c concentration range of 3.8% to 14.0%, and CV was less than 1.5% for repeated detection at high and low concentration levels.There was a strong correlation with HPLC during methodological comparison. In general, it had the advantages of good linearity, high precision, stability and accuracy, which revealed a favourable detection effect.

2. Background and Significance
Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) reflects patients’ average blood glucose levels over the past 2-3 months and plays a critical role in the diagnosis and management of diabetes. Multiple assays exist (HPLC, enzymatic, immunoturbidimetric, etc.), each with unique advantages. Our preliminary work developed a new latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay (LEIBA) using a highly purified and specific mouse anti-human HbA1c-6C2 monoclonal antibody. Laboratory studies showed favorable linearity, precision, stability, and accuracy.
To further confirm its clinical feasibility and performance, we plan to compare this new method with the conventional high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Therefore, we will use leftover blood samples from patients who have already undergone routine HbA1c tests in our hospital.

3. Objectives

To validate the accuracy, precision, and stability of the LEIBA assay (using the mouse anti-human HbA1c-6C2 monoclonal antibody) in clinical samples.
To compare and correlate the new method with HPLC, regarded as the reference standard, and assess their consistency.
