Mean platelet size related to glycoprotein-specific autoantibodies and platelet-associated IgG
Recent evidence suggests that platelet-associated glycoprotein-specific (GP) antibodies represent true positive autoantibodies and can therefore be taken as the gold standard. Earlier tests, which aimed at detecting platelet-associated IgG (PA-IgG), might have been hampered, e.g. by the variation of platelet size in thrombocytopenic patients. In this study, 206 samples with increased PA-IgG fro...
متن کامل[Detection of platelet specific antibodies by modified antigen capture ELISA test.].
BACKGROUND Autoimmune thrombocytopenia (AITP) is characterized by autoantibody-induced platelet destruction. Although several studies have shown that pathogenic autoantibodies are mainly IgG directed platelet glycoproteins (GP), a platelet GP specific test is not available in clinical laboratories. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of a Modified Antigen Capture Enzym...
متن کاملSimultaneous Detection of Antigen-Specific IgG- and IgM-Secreting Cells with a B Cell Fluorospot Assay
The traditional enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISpot) assay is the gold standard for the enumeration of antigen-specific B cells. Since B cell availability from biological samples is often limited, either because of sample size/volume or the need of performing multiple analyses on the same sample, the implementation of ELISpot assay formats that allow the simultaneous detection of multiple antibod...
متن کاملFlow Cytometric Measurement of CD41/CD61 and CD42b Platelet Receptors and Clotting Assay of Platelet Factor 3 During Long Term-Storage of Platelet Concentrates
Background: The purpose of the present in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of long term storage of conventional platelet concentrates (PCs) on major platelet receptors CD42b and CD41/CD61 by flow cytometry method and also measuring the overall platelet procoagulant activity status using platelet factor 3 (PF3) assay. Materials and Methods: Six random units of conventional platelet conce...
متن کاملPreparation of prostate specific antigen standards for immunoradiometric assay
Background: Immunoradiometric assay is one of the most common and precise methods for determination of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in clinical laboratories. Usual use of human serum in routine assays has many disadvantages such as easy contamination and precipitation, instability and unavailability. Thus in order to avoid these problems the artificial matrix was used which acts sim...
