Detection of Antinuclear Antibody in Childhood Rheumatic Diseases by Immunofluorescence Assay and Enzyme Immuno Assay
Background: Anti-nuclear antibodies (ANAs) are specific antibodies directed against a variety of nuclear antigens. Indirect immunofluorecence (ANA-IFA) and Enzyme Immunoassay (ANA-EIA) are commonly used methods for ANA detection. The positivity of ANA-IFA using HEp-2 cell substrate is 90-100% in systemic rheumatic diseases. On the other hand positivity of ANA-EIA is found to be much lower in di...
متن کاملStandardization of an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay for Detection of Infectious Bronchitis Virus Antibody.
An indirect enzyme–linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for screening of antibody to avian infectious bronchitis virus (IBV). Antigen was prepared from whole-purified IBV Massachusetts serotype (BR 801 strain). Optimum dilution with minimum background for antigen concentration, rabbit anti-chicken conjugate and sera in developed ELISA was determined 0.1μg/ml, 1:3000 and 1:100, respe...
متن کاملUsefulness of antinuclear antibody testing to screen for rheumatic diseases.
OBJECTIVE To assess the usefulness of the indirect immunofluorescence antinuclear antibody test (FANA) using human laryngeal epithelial carcinoma cells as nuclear substrate, to screen for childhood rheumatic diseases. STUDY DESIGN A review of all FANA tests performed on children at British Columbia's Children's Hospital between 7 March 1991 and 31 July 1995. RESULTS FANA tests were positive...
متن کاملSpecific detection of Shigella sonnei by enzyme-linked aptamer sedimentation assay
Development of potent new anti-Shigella agents for rapid and specific detection and treatment is of great importance. Aptamers, nucleic acid oligomers capable of specific binding to a wide range of non-nucleic acid targets, may be of value for this purpose. In the present study, we used a Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential enrichment (SELEX) process to select DNA aptamers that b...
متن کاملEnzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detection of measles antibody.
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for the detection of measles immunoglobulin G antibody (MEASELISA). This assay was found to be comparable to the measles hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) test. Approximately 500 sera from three centers were tested by MEASELISA and the HAI test. MEASELISA demonstrated values of greater than 99% for sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy...
