Enzyme-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...
متن کاملDiagnostic tests for amoebic liver abscess: comparison of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and counterimmunoelectrophoresis (CIE).
The liver abscess is the most frequent extraintestinal complication of intestinal amoebiasis: its diagnosis is suggested by the clinical picture but it must be confirmed by paraclinic tests. Themost stringent diagnosis requires identification of E. histolytica. But this is possible only in a few cases. Serological tests greatly improve the diagnosis of this severe complication of amoebiasis. We...
متن کاملComparison of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for acute measles with hemagglutination inhibition complement fixation, and fluorescent-antibody methods.
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using commercially available reagents was compared with standard serological tests for determination of antibody titers in patients with acute measles. The measles-specific ELISA was as sensitive as complement fixation, hemagglutination inhibition, and indirect fluorescent-antibody methods. The ELISA method used was simple, sensitive, inexpensive, an...
متن کاملThe ELISA, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
Featured Article: Engvall E, Perlmann P. Enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Quantitative assay of immunoglobulin G. Immunochemistry 1971;8:871– 4. This paper was my first as a graduate student of Professor Peter Perlmann at Stockholm University. At the time, RIAs were in full bloom, but they were too sophisticated for many areas of research and diagnosis because they required expensive e...
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...
