چکیده
A phospholipase A2 (PLA2, EC 3.1.1.4) was purified from human cell-free ascitic fluid (a-PLA2) by ion-exchange chromatography and h.p.l.c. on a reverse-phase column to apparent homogeneity. The enzyme had an Mr of approx. 10000 as determined by SDS/PAGE. Polyclonal antibodies raised in a rabbit were specific to a-PLA2, as judged by immunoblotting. A time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TR-FIA) for measuring the concentration of a-PLA2 in various body fluids was developed. The detection limit of the assay was about 6 ng/ml. The antiserum did not cross-react with pancreatic secretory phospholipase A2 as measured by TR-FIA. The enzyme content was studied in various samples, including normal human serum, buffy-coat leucocytes, synovial fluid, and pancreas and spleen homogenates.

Products of activated lymphocytes are known to modulate the function of macrophages (1-3). Migration inhibitory factor (MIF) 1 is one of the best studied mediators of cellular immunity (4). Although many investigators have tried to analyze the biological and physicochemical properties of MIF from different species, the active substance has not been purified to homogeneity. MIF produced by guine...

An immunochemical sol-gel-based immunoaffinity purification (IAP) method for purification and detection of the progestin drug medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) was developed. A polyclonal antibody (Ab) for MPA was generated, and two competitive (indirect and direct) sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) for its detection were developed and implemented to determine the recovery a...
متن کاملPurification and physical characterization of glutathione S-transferase K
A novel hepatic enzyme, glutathione S-transferase K, is described that, unlike previously characterized transferases, possesses little affinity for S-hexylglutathione-Sepharose 6B but can be isolated because it binds to a glutathione affinity matrix. A purification scheme for this new enzyme was devised, with the use of DEAE-cellulose, S-hexylglutathione-Sepharose 6B, glutathione-Sepharose 6B a...

A polyclonal antibody (Ab) for the progestin levonorgestrel (LNG) was generated, and immunochemical assays for its detection, clean-up and concentration were developed. A highly specific microplate diagnostic assay for the detection of LNG was developed that used the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. The LNG ELISA developed was sensitive and reproducible; it exhibited I(50) and ...
