The accuracy and precision of analyte concentrations measured in whole blood by chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) have been significantly affected by erythrocytes, which leads to poor application of whole blood CLIA in clinical practice. In this work, a chemiluminescence biosensing optical platform for blood hematocrit (HCT) analysis using MAGICL 6000 (Getein Biotechnology, Nanjing, China) was designed, implemented, and fully characterized. The developed method was successfully applied to determine various HCT levels of human blood from 0% to 65%, with a correlation coefficient of 0.9885 compared with the conventional method (Sysmex XE 5000, Kobe, Japan). A mathematical model was developed to quantitatively evaluate the impact of HCT on the results of two sample types (whole blood vs. plasma). Combining the established HCT method and mathematical model with CLIA on MAGICL 6000, the precision was significantly improved by almost 20%. Comparison studies using whole blood samples and corresponding plasma samples showed that the square of the correlation coefficients of troponin I (cTnI), myoglobin (MYO), creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), and N-terminal pro-hormone brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) were increased to 0.9992, 0.9997, 0.9996, and 0.9994, respectively, showing a great potential for clinical application.
