چکیده

Rivanol, the cationic salt of an acridine base, has been used as a novel separation procedure in an immunoradiometric assay for human liver ferritin. The separation step is based on the differences in charge and molecular weight between the labelled antibody-ferritin complex and free labelled immunoglobulins. The resultant assay is simple, reproducible and sufficiently sensitive to determine serum concentrations of ferritin.

A two-site immunoradiometric assay with magnetizable particles: human liver ferritin as a model.

Using human liver ferritin as a model, we have developed a two-site immunoradiometric assay. Sample (or standard) is incubated with excess rabbit antiserum and 125I-labeled specific sheep antibodies directed against different antigenic determinants until equilibrium is reached. Then excess sheep anti-rabbit immunoglobulin G serum, covalently linked to magnetizable particles, is added. The radio...

Preparation of Human Liver Ferritin

Ferritin is the major intracellular iron storage protein found in the body, consisting of a spherical protein shell of MW 450 000 made up of 24 identical subunits. Iron is stored in the inner core as crystalline ferric-oxide-phosphate. Ferritin is found mainly in the reticuloendothelial system, predominantly in the spleen, liver, and bone marrow. Circulating levels of ferritin have been shown t...

Characterization and localization of human placental ferritin.

Ferritin has been purified from normal full-term human placentae and its antigenic and molecular characteristics compared with adult liver ferritin. Placental ferritin is composed predominantly of a single subunit type, co-migrating with a liver ferritin standard on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Comparison of dose-response curves in an immunoradiometric assay indic...

An immunoradiometric assay for ferritin in the serum of normal subjects and patients with iron deficiency and iron overload.

An immunoradiometric assay for human ferritin has been developed. Concentrations of ferritin in the serum of male and female controls and patients with iron deficiency and iron overload were measured.Male controls were found to have a significantly higher mean concentration of serum ferritin than females. Patients with iron deficiency had significantly lower levels than normals of either sex an...

Purification and iodination of antibody for use in an immunoradiometric assay for serum ferritin.

Antibodies were purified by affinity chromatography and radioiodinated by a conjugation method for use inthe immunoradiometric assay for serum ferritin. These procedures are simpler and more reproducible than those described earlier, and the radiolabeled preparations were usable for at least 13 weeks.
