Radioimmunoassay for quantifying antibody to N. Gonorrhoeae in human sera.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A radioimmunoassay has been developed for the serodiagnosis of gonorrhoea. When 382 human sera from acutely infected and well documented control subjects were assayed by this procedure, 90% were diagnosed correctly, 5% were diagnosed incorrectly, and in 5% the results were indecisive.

Asymptomatic females: detection of antibody activity to gonococcal pili antigen by radioimmunoassay.
A gonococcal pili antigen preparation was used to detect antibody activity sera obtained from 322 culture-positive asymptomatic females and 150 negative controls. Pili were obtained from a culture of type 2 Neisseria gonorrhoeae (strain 2686) and labeled with 125I for use in a double-antibody radioimmunoassay test system. Of the 322 sera obtained from culture-positive, asymptomatic females, 276...
متن کاملSolid phase radioimmunoassay for typing herpes simplex viral antibodies in human sera.
An indirect solid phase radioimmunoassay (RIA) was developed for typing antibody to herpes simplex virus (HSV) types 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2) in human sera. The test is based upon absorption of sera with uninfected, HSV-1-infected cells and testing for residual antibody. The high sensitivity of the RIA method for detecting HSV antibody permits examination of sera at high dilutions, and thus re...
متن کاملPotential use of specific human and chicken antibodies for detection of Hanganutziu-Deicher antigen(s) in sera of cancer patients.
A human Hanganutziu-Deicher (HD) antibody and a chicken anti-N-glycolyneuroaminyllactosylceramide (HD3) antibody were compared in their reaction against HD antigen-active ganglioside (HD3) and a glycoprotein (GP) by radioimmunoassay (RIA). The human antibody had a 50 times higher reactivity with the glycoprotein, while the chicken antibody reacted equally with both antigens. Both antibodies had...
متن کاملCharacteristics of human antibody to diphtheria toxin.
Human antibody to diphtheria toxin was analyzed with an ammonium sulfate radioimmunoassay. In 15 immune sera with titers of between 0.03 and 25 units/ml, the avidity was similar to that of U.S. standard antitoxin. The proportion of the post-immunization anti-diphtheria antibody specific for fragment A was variable, but in the 10 sera tested constituted a substantial fraction of the antibody. Ap...
متن کاملRapid radioimmunoassay for prostate-specific acid phosphatase in human serum.
We describe a rapid radioimmunoassay for human prostatic acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) in serum, with use of monospecific antisera raised in rabbits against the primary highly purified acid phosphatase (pl 4.9) from human prostates, and with a second antibody-polyethylene glycol porecipitation. This radioimmunoassay is sensitive and can be performed within 5 h. Concentrations of the immunoreact...
