متن کاملAssay of antinuclear antibodies by ELISA using nuclei as antigen.
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect antinuclear antibodies in the sera of patients with autoimmune diseases is described. Goat liver nuclei were immobilized on polystyrene plates and antinuclear antibodies were used to standardize the assay. The effects of variables, such as the nuclei concentration, conditions of nuclei storage, and the length of the incubation period were investiga...
متن کاملSerum Free Light-chain Assay for the Diagnosis, Management, and Prognosis of Multiple Myeloma
In recent decades, new serum biomarkers have been developed for routine laboratory practice, such as assaying serum free light chains and more recently, assaying immunoglobulin heavy and light chain isotypes (Hevylite). In this work, we highlight the interest of new biomarkers (Hevylite Test) in the management of monoclonal gammopathies because of the technical advantages it confers and the se...
متن کاملAn enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for urinary free cortisol.
Since the introduction of our plasma cortisol enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) [l] using affinity purified antiserum [2] into the routine steroid laboratory, we have embarked on the development of a simple urinary free or unconjugated cortisol ELISA which would allow measurement of both urine and plasma cortisol on the one ELISA plate. This paper describes for the first time an ELISA f...
متن کاملAntigen Binding Characteristics of Immunoglobulin Free Light Chains: Crosslinking by Antigen is Essential to Induce Allergic Inflammation
Beside the production of complete immunoglobulins IgG, IgE, IgA, IgM and IgD, consisting of tetrameric heterodimers of immunoglobulin heavy and light chains, B cells also secrete immunoglobulin free light chains (Ig-fLC). Previous studies showed that Ig-fLCs are able to induce immediate hypersensitivity reactions. It is apparent that recognition and binding of antigen are crucial steps in the o...
