These assays are complex, challenging to implement in a format allowing detection of several types of antibody-analyte interactions at once (multiplex), and troublesome to implement in the field. As an alternative, we have developed a hemagglutinin microarray on the Arrayed Imaging Reflectometry (AIR) platform. AIR provides sensitive, rapid, and label-free multiplex detection of targets in complex analyte samples such as serum. In preliminary work, we demonstrated the application of this array to the testing of human samples from a vaccine trial. Here, we report the application of an expanded label-free hemagglutinin microarray to the analysis of avian serum samples. Samples from influenza virus challenge experiments in mallards yielded strong, selective detection of antibodies to the challenge antigen in most cases. Samples acquired in the field from mallards were also analyzed, and compared with viral hemagglutinin inhibition and microneutralization assays. We find that the AIR hemagglutinin microarray can provide a simple and robust alternative to standard methods, offering substantially greater information density from a simple workflow.</p></div></front><back><div1 type="bibliography"><listBibl><biblStruct><analytic><author><name sortKey="Katz, Jm" uniqKey="Katz J">JM Katz</name></author><author><name sortKey="Hancock, K"

In the context of surveillance and evaluation of vaccine efficacy applications, however, the limitations of these assays including their complexity and ability to only provide information about a single antibody–antigen response at a time have proven problematic. Because of this, it is widely recognized that there is a need for new methods for detecting influenza antibodies [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref002" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>]. Ideally, such technologies should be able to provide quantitative information about several antibody responses to different antigens simultaneously (i.e. a “multiplex” test) while doing so in a fast, reagentless, sample-conserving way (as, particularly for avian surveillance, limited volumes of sample are available), and independently of the host species tested. As alternatives to the traditional serologic assays, these new methods could dramatically simplify the process of analyzing samples acquired in the field.</p><p>We have recently developed a technology that should prove useful in addressing this goal. Arrayed Imaging Reflectometry, or “AIR”, is a label-free biosensor technique able to provide quantitative information on 10’s to 100’s of analytes simultaneously, while requiring low sample volumes (< 25 microliters) and simple instrumentation. In brief, AIR relies on the creation of a near-perfect antireflective condition on the surface of a silicon chip [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref003" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>]. When target molecules bind to immobilized probes (antibodies or antigens) on the surface of the chip, this causes a disturbance in the antireflective condition, producing a change in the reflected light that quantitatively and sensitively reports the amount of the target analyte present in a sample. As a label-free technique, AIR utilizes a simple work flow involving only application of the diluted sample to the chip, incubation, and a final rinse and dry step prior to imaging. This system can be implemented using an imaging system that has no moving parts, no need for temperature control, and an estimated component cost of under $5000. Further details of the method, and its application to a broad range of targets, have been reported elsewhere [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref004" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>]. In preliminary studies focused on influenza antibody detection, we examined the performance of an AIR array consisting of 5 hemagglutinins, with human samples derived from a trial of a candidate H5N1 flu vaccine [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref005" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>]. We found that this array readily enabled us to profile relative antibody responses (many of which were cross-reactive) in human serum, and differentiate subjects receiving placebo from those to whom the candidate vaccine had been administered. Other groups, using labeled approaches (in which a fluorophore-tagged secondary antibody is incubated with the array post sample incubation, allowing readout via a fluorescence microarray scanner), have similarly examined the utility of influenza antigen microarrays for assessing responses to infection or vaccination [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref006" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>–<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref010" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>]. A random peptide library has also been employed in this context [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref011" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>].</p><p>Following these initial validation experiments, we sought to determine if the AIR hemagglutinin microarray could be used in the context of influenza surveillance in avian species. In particular, the label-free aspect of the AIR hemagglutinin array is attractive in this application, since the simplified workflow of such a device potentially allows for the production of field-deployable, self-contained instruments. Such devices would allow for the immediate analysis of samples in the field, rather than requiring their transport back to a centralized facility. To that end, we report here the extension of the AIR HA array to a larger number of HA isoforms, and its use in the context of analyzing avian serum samples.</p></sec><sec sec-type="materials|methods" id="sec002"><title>Materials and Methods</title><sec id="sec003"><title>Ethics Statement</title><p>All animal work was reviewed and approved by the University of Georgia Institution Animal Care and Use Committee (AUP#: A2013 05–021)</p></sec><sec id="sec004"><title>Label-free substrates</title><p>Amine-reactive AIR chips were purchased from Adarza BioSystems, Inc.</p></sec><sec id="sec005"><title>Recombinant hemagglutinins</title><p>The following recombinant hemagglutinins (<xref rid="pone.0134484.t001" ref-type="table">Table 1</xref>) were purchased from Sino Biological, Inc., and used as supplied.</p><table-wrap id="pone.0134484.t001" orientation="portrait" position="float"><object-id pub-id-type="doi">10.1371/journal.pone.0134484.t001</object-id><label>Table 1</label><caption><title>Recombinant hemagglutinins used in microarray fabrication.</title></caption><alternatives><graphic id="pone.0134484.t001g" xlink:href="pone.0134484.t001"></graphic><table frame="hsides" rules="groups"><colgroup span="1"><col align="left" valign="middle" span="1"></col><col align="left" valign="middle" span="1"></col></colgroup><thead><tr><th align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">Hemagglutinin</th><th align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">Strain</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H1</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/Brisbane/59/2007</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H1</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/mallard/Ohio/265/1987</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H2</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/Canada/720/2005</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H3</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/Wisconsin/67/X-161/2005</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H4</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/mallard/Ohio/657/2002</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H5</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/turkey/Turkey/1/2005</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H5</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/duck/NY/191255-59/2002</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H6</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/northern shoveler/California/HKWF115/2007</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H6</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/mallard/Ohio/217/1998</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H7</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/Shanghai/2/2013</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H8</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/pintail duck/Alberta/114/1979</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H9</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/Hong Kong/1073/99</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H10</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/mallard/Minnesota/Sg-00194/2007</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H11</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/mallard/Alberta/294/1977</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">H12</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">A/green-winged teal/ALB/199/1991</td></tr><tr><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">B</td><td align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">B/Florida/4/2006</td></tr></tbody></table></alternatives></table-wrap></sec><sec id="sec006"><title>Commercial polyclonal antisera</title><p>Hemagglutinin-specific polyclonal antisera were obtained from BEI resources.

In brief, amine-reactive substrates as received from the manufacturer were stored in a vacuum-seal dome with Drierite prior to use. HA spotting solutions were prepared in PBS at 150 μg/ml from stock solutions, while antibody spotting solutions used as controls were prepared in PBS at 200 μg/ml from stocks. Individual antigens were arrayed on substrates by means of a piezo-electric, noncontact arrayer (Scienion S3) at a controlled humidity (~65%) using a capillary nozzle capable of producing 350 pL spots. Typically 10 spots were printed for each antigen; these were interleaved with positive (IgG) and negative (mouse IgG F(c) fragment) control spots. After printing, substrates were placed into 50 mM sodium acetate buffer (pH 5.0), followed by a dropwise addition of 100 mg/ml of BSA in PBS that resulted in a final blocking concentration of 10 mg/ml BSA solution (1%) in sodium acetate buffer. After 30 minutes in this solution, substrates received three washes with modified PBS-EDTA-Tween20 (assay wash buffer) and then were added to pre-blocked wells of a 96-well plate containing target solutions. Substrates were incubated in target solution for approximately 1 hour followed by washing with assay buffer, then phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at pH 7.4. After a brief rinse in deionized, glass-distilled water (ddH<sub>2</sub>O), substrates were placed on a vacuum chuck and dried with a stream of nitrogen. Substrates were either imaged immediately afterwards or stored in a vacuum-seal dome for later imaging.</p></sec><sec id="sec008"><title>Chip imaging</title><p>Dried experimental and control arrays were imaged on a prototype AIR reflectometer (Adarza BioSystems, Inc.) with exposure times ranging from 250 ms to 1 second.</p></sec><sec id="sec009"><title>Data analysis</title><p>Data were extracted from 16-bit images using NIH-ImageJ [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref012" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>]. For individual microarray spots, median pixel intensities were reported as reflectance values (arbitrary units) and then converted to thickness (Ångstroms). This is necessary since thickness, a direct measure of the amount of material deposited on the microarray spot, and reflectance, the measured quantity, are not linearly related in the AIR method [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref013" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>]. Conversion was made possible through the use of an empirical, parabolic model that characterizes the reflectance behavior of chip silicon oxide thickness at a particular integration time. The processing of data was performed in a simplified and sequential manner: intra-chip thicknesses for HA isoform spots were first normalized by adjacent negative control spots (mouse IgG F(c) fragment). This step was needed to correct for regional variations in chip topography. After normalizing all HA spots to a “baseline” negative control spot thickness, intra-chip HA isoform thicknesses were averaged (n = 5 to n = 10) and the standard deviations were obtained. This process was executed for each experimental condition (N = 1) and each HA isoform. Next, the control-exposed HA isoform means were subtracted from each of the analyte-exposed HA isoform means to produce Δ thickness values. The final errors are reported as the square root of the sum of squares between the analyte and control group standard deviations for the HA isoforms. In order to report quantitative information, we plot Δ thickness as a function of concentration.</p></sec><sec id="sec010"><title>Field-collected serum samples</title><p>Serum samples from mallards (<italic>Anas plathyrynchos</italic>) were obtained from field-collected birds from northwestern Minnesota and from experimentally infected birds (<italic>Anas plathyrynchos</italic>, Murray McMurray Hatchery, Webster City, IA, USA) [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref014" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>].

While effective in that study, higher sensitivity can be obtained by first correcting based on an internal negative control (here, anti-fluorescein), and then relative to a control array treated with an unreactive serum. The main issue with normalizing detection data using (m)PBS-ET buffer is that it does not allow one to distinguish between nonspecific binding from serum treatments and actual antibody-antigen interaction. Essentially, this may cause false-positive detection or a global signal offset. Substrates treated with unreactive serum epitomize ideal negative control conditions since all sera are composed of the same basic constituents [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref017" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>]. Of course, such a negative-control serum must be devoid of anti-HA antibodies, suggesting a fetal source as the ideal serum matrix. While fetal bovine serum (FBS) is known to interfere with influenza infectivity, this is believed to be due to the presence of FBS constituents able to inhibit viral proteases necessary for membrane fusion [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref018" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>].

This was possible only for a subset of antigens on the array, constrained by commercial availability. Dilution series for each antiserum were used to verify specificity and to assess lower limits of detection (LLOD, defined as the lowest antiserum dilution tested for which the detection signal was twice the standard deviation). In each case, the highest concentration used in the titration was that at which the relevant antigen response saturated. As one would expect, these were very different for different antigens. <xref rid="pone.0134484.g001" ref-type="fig">Fig 1</xref> shows a representative set of array images exposed to a 1% BSA and anti-H1 antiserum. <xref rid="pone.0134484.g002" ref-type="fig">Fig 2</xref> shows a representative dilution series for anti-H3 antiserum; dilution series for other antisera are provided in <bold><xref rid="pone.0134484.s002" ref-type="supplementary-material">S1 File</xref></bold>. Values for LLOD are provided in <xref rid="pone.0134484.t002" ref-type="table">Table 2</xref>. Several conclusions may be drawn from these data. First, “matched” or homologous antigens responded as expected on the arrays, even though in some instances the HA used to raise the antiserum was not identical to that immobilized on the chip. Cross-reactivity in all cases was minimal, as may be readily observed from the titration shown in <xref rid="pone.0134484.g002" ref-type="fig">Fig 2</xref>. With regard to LLOD, these rely on the interplay of several factors. First, most obviously, the LLOD depends on the effective concentration of polyclonal antibody in serum. Each serum was collected following goat immunization with HA antigen and will have varying immunogenic response and, thus, IgG concentration (as well as variation in neutralizing antibody concentration, as reflected in the reported HI titer; see <xref rid="pone.0134484.t002" ref-type="table">Table 2</xref>). Second, the LLOD depends on the analytical performance of the array, which in turn is a function of several factors, including the ability to immobilize probe molecules at a thickness near the antireflective condition, the activity of the probe molecule following immobilization, and the ability to reject nonspecific binding by non-target serum components. From <xref rid="pone.0134484.t001" ref-type="table">Table 1</xref>, it is clear that the observed LLODs are comparable to (if not better than) measured HI titers provided by the suppliers, and within the range typically observed for an ELISA HA assay. We would not expect these LLODs to be identical, given the differences in the assay system.</p><fig id="pone.0134484.g001" orientation="portrait" position="float"><object-id pub-id-type="doi">10.1371/journal.pone.0134484.g001</object-id><label>Fig 1</label><caption><title>Strong responses to polyclonal anti-HA antiserum are readily observable on an AIR hemagglutinin microarray.</title><p>(a) 1% BSA control.

For the majority of these samples, a specific response was detectable to a titer of at least 1:100 (1% solution). In some cases, modest thickness builds were observed for the non-challenge HAs as well, potentially reflecting cross-reactive antibody responses, or the presence of sialylated serum products able bind to the HA probes [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref019" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>].</p><p>Three samples (1468, 1493, and 1492) did not show analogous subtype-specific and robust responses. Independent ELISA data indicated that samples 1493 and 1492 contained antibodies to NP protein, although subtype-specific antibodies were not detectable by MN for sample 1492. Sample 1493 had low titers of antibody (20), as measured by MN. This is consistent with data indicating that birds inoculated with H12 (1492 and 1493) did not shed virus, indicating limited viral replication. These generally consistent results suggest that this particular virus did not infect the birds and therefore did not produce a potent immunogenic response following inoculation, rather than indicating any issue with the AIR hemagglutinin microarray. MN analysis of 1468 indicated a titer of 40, and the bird was found to be shedding virus. Therefore, with respect to this sample, it is possible that the H3 in our array is antigenically distinct from the H3 virus that was used to inoculate the bird. Some of the HA responses displayed negative changes in spot thickness relative to controls. These are likely due to subtle differences in nonspecific binding for individual experimental samples relative to controls, and although they constitute a source of noise in the assay do not hinder observation of the strong positive signals. Overall, these experiments demonstrated the utility of the AIR HA microarray to effectively report on antibody titer raised in response to a viral challenge.</p></sec><sec id="sec015"><title>Experiments with field samples (mallards)</title><p>To further assess the utility of the HA array for analyzing influenza responses of natural infections in avian serum, we tested 13 serum samples taken from mallards in the field. These samples were prescreened for antibodies to influenza nucleoprotein using a commercial blocking ELISA (bELISA) assay, with 10 of the 13 yielding a positive signal. Responses for these samples from the AIR hemagglutinin array are shown in <xref rid="pone.0134484.g004" ref-type="fig">Fig 4</xref> and <bold><xref rid="pone.0134484.s001" ref-type="supplementary-material">S1 Fig</xref></bold>.

Responses for H2 virus correlated particularly well, with samples A, B, and D showing a dramatic thickness build on the AIR array as well as strong MN titers, despite the use of an H2N2 antigen on the AIR array and an H2N3 virus in the MN assay. All-negative samples (F, J, M) are also in good agreement. As an example of differences between the assay formats, sample L produced a response consistent with significant concentrations of antibodies to H2, H3, H4, H6, H7, H8, H9, and H12, while MN assays were positive for only H3, H4, and H12. As in our previous work with human samples, it is possible that differences in response are indicative of the presence of non-neutralizing antibodies, or of cross-reactivity with immobilized hemagglutinins.</p><fig id="pone.0134484.g004" orientation="portrait" position="float"><object-id pub-id-type="doi">10.1371/journal.pone.0134484.g004</object-id><label>Fig 4</label><caption><title>Comparison of HA microarray and selected microneutralization (MN) and virus isolation (VI) results for field samples (mallard).</title><p>a) AIR microarray data.

Ideally, efforts along these lines would involve serological assessment in the field, as rapidly available results could be used to guide further collections during a study. Currently, however, the complexity of current “gold-standard” serological methods makes this impossible. In this report, we have shown that a hemagglutinin microarray constructed on the Arrayed Imaging Reflectometry (AIR) platform can provide multiplex information about anti-HA antibody titers in avian serum. While not identical to results obtained via MN, these data are complementary to and extend results obtained via standard techniques. Results obtained from the AIR platform correctly identified subtypes used to experimentally infect mallards. For field samples, array data also provided a serologic profile that in most cases mirrored MN and virus isolation results from the test samples and reflected the extensive influenza subtype diversity that is annually present at this field site [<xref rid="pone.0134484.ref014" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>]. Importantly, as a label-free methodology with a simple workflow and low sample volume requirement (≤ 20 microliters), we anticipate that the AIR HA microarray is ideally suited to field applications. The fact that the AIR microarray is not species-specific is also likely to be useful, as obtaining secondary antibodies to specific wild species can be challenging. Thus, samples from many potential avian and mammalian hosts may be evaluated without modification of the assay system. Since the current array uses only a small fraction of the total AIR chip surface area, expansion to additional HA variants (or fragments of HA) is trivial. Efforts along those lines are currently in progress.</p></sec><sec sec-type="supplementary-material" id="sec017"><title>Supporting Information</title><supplementary-material content-type="local-data" id="pone.0134484.s001"><label>S1 Fig</label><caption><title>Alternative format of <xref rid="pone.0134484.g004" ref-type="fig">Fig 4</xref>; raw thickness changes for each antigen.</title><p>(PDF)</p></caption><media xlink:href="pone.0134484.s001.pdf"><caption><p>Click here for additional data file.</p></caption></media></supplementary-material><supplementary-material content-type="local-data" id="pone.0134484.s002"><label>S1 File</label><caption><title>Dilution series for H1, H2, H3, H5, H6, H7, H9, and B polyclonal antisera.</title><p>H1 polyclonal antiserum titration (Figure A).
