Detection of Circulating Immune Complexes in Dog Sera by Immune Adherence Hemagglutination Method.

Heterophil antigen in bovine sera detectable by immune adherence hemagglutination with infectious mononucleosis sera.

Bovine sera for tissue culture use were shown to contain heterophil antigen of the Paul-Bunnell-Davidsohn type by immune adherence hemagglutination tests with sera from patients with infectious mononucleosis. The antibody titers observed were comparable to those determined by two other methods; i.e., the immune adherence hemagglutination test was found to be as specific as the differential abso...

Detection of Circulating Immune Complexes

The presumed importance of circulating immune complexes (CIC) in the pathogenesis of glomerulonephritis in man is based on comparisons with animal models (Wilson and Dixon, 1976). There is much indirect evidence suggesting the activity of immune complexes in human glomerulonephritis from (i) demonstration of granular deposits of immunoglobulins and complement components in renal biopsy sections...

Identification of group A coxsackieviruses by immune adherence hemagglutination.

We investigated to find whether the immune adherence hemagglutination (IAHA) test could be used for identification of group A coxsackieviruses (Cox. A). By using homogenate of suckling mouse torsos infected with each of nine prototype viruses (Cox. A 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 16) and 46 isolates as antigens and hyperimmune mouse ascitic fluids to the prototype viruses, we compared IAHA with c...

Circulating Immune Complexes

A B S TRAC T The presence of circulating immune complexes in freshly drawn sera of patients with various forms of malignancies was detected by the 125I-Clq deviation test of Sobel et al. More than 50% of the 459 cancer sera showed a high inhibition of 125I-Clq uptake by sensitized sheep erythrocytes when compared with sera of50 healthy laboratory personnel. The levels were compared with levels ...
