High-throughput fluorescence polarization immunoassays (FPIAs) for mycotoxin were conducted using a portable FP analyzer with a microdevice. Simultaneous FPIA measurements for 8 different deoxynivalenol (DON) concentrations in 12 chambers (total of 96 samples) and high-throughput FPIA measurements for single DON concentrations in more than 500 chambers were conducted. The results indicated that simultaneous FPIAs for 96 independent samples and for 500 samples were possible by FP imaging.

Fluorescence polarization (FP) offers easy operation and rapid processing, making it implementable in molecular interaction analysis. Previously we have developed a unique FP measurement system using a liquid crystal (LC) layer and an image sensor. The system is based on a principle of synchronized detection between the switching rate of the LC layer and the sampling rate of the CCD.

The detection system which enables simultaneous fluorescence polarization (FP) measurement of multiple samples was proposed and proven by a proof-of-concept experiment on the viscosity dependence of FP of fluorescein sample in water-ethylene glycol solution and another experiment on the FP immunoassay of prostaglandin E2 sample. The measurement principle of FP is based on the synchronization between the orientation of the liquid crystal molecules and the sampling frequency of a CCD. This report is the first description of the simultaneous FP measurement of multiple samples.
