Instructions for use Title ELEVATION OF HETEROPHILIC ANTIBODIES TO RABBIT ERYTHROCYTES IN HUMAN PATHOLOGIC SERA : QUANTITATIVE STUDIES BY ELISA USING A GLYCOSPHINGOLIPID ANTIGEN
نویسندگان
چکیده
Human heterophilic hemagglutinin to rabbit erythrocytes was quantitatively determined by the hemagglutination test and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using rabbit erythrocyte pentaglycosyl ceramide (CPH), Gal (a 1-3) Gal (fl 1-4) GlcNAc (fl 1-3) Gal (fl 1-4) Glc-Cer as the antigen. The antibody levels in sera from 74 Hanganutziu-Deicher (H-D) antibody-positive patients were significantly higher than those in sera from 55 healthy donors, and the correlation between the antibody levels detected by ELISA and hemagglutinin titers was significant. The antibody levels detected by ELISA correlated to the IgG anti-body levels, while the hemagglutinin titers correlated to the IgM antibody levels. These results suggested that IgG levels as well as IgM levels against rabbit erythrocytes were elevated in H-D antibody-positive patients with various tumors and infectious diseases. In 4 out of 67 cancer patients collected randomly, abnormally high levels of anti-CPR IgG antibody were detected.

The irradiated 146 S antigen was purified by sucrose gradient centrifugation after in...
متن کاملMeasurement of Affinity Constant of Anti-human IgG Monoclonal Antibodies by an ELISA-based Method
Background: The affinity of an antibody to its antigen is a crucial parameter in its biological activity and performance of an immunoassay such as ELISA. Affinity of most IgG specific MAbs are often determined by methods which require labeling of either antigen or antibody, and are sometimes difficult to control, do not always lead to the expected signal and often result in immunological modifi...
