The use of magnetic beads bio-functionalized by antibodies (Ab) is constantly increasing with a wide range of biomedical applications. However, despite an urgent need for current methods to monitor Ab’s grafting process and orientation, existing methods are still either cumbersome and/or limited. In this work, we propose a new simple and rapid analytical approach to evaluate antibody orientation and density on magnetic beads. This approach relies on the cleavage by IdeS , a highly specific protease for human immunoglobulin G (hIgG), of immobilized antibodies. The F(ab) 2 and Fc fragments could be then accurately quantified by size exclusion chromatography (SEC)-coupled to fluorescent detection (FLD), and the ratio of these fragments was used to give insight on the IgG orientation at the bead surface. Four different commercially available magnetic beads, bearing carboxyl groups, tosyl groups, streptavidin, or protein G on their surface have been used in this study. Results obtained showed that this approach ensures reliable information on hIgG orientation and bead surface coverage. Protein G magnetic beads demonstrated an optimal orientation of antibodies for antigen capture (75% of accessible F(ab) 2 fragment) compared to tosylactivated, carboxylated, and streptavidin ones. Capture efficiency of the different functionalized beads towards human TNF-α immunocapture, a biomarker of inflammation, has been also compared. Protein G beads provided a more efficient capture compared to other beads. In the future, this approach could be applied to any type of surface and beads to assess hIgG coverage and orientation after any type of immobilization.
