Immunoassay of antigens and haptens by inhibition of passive immune hemolysis

Journal of Immunological Methods
T BorsosJ J Langone

Abstract

Improved methods are presented for the detection of antigens and haptens by the use of the passive hemolysis inhibition test. The test is capable of detecting nanogram quantities of proteins (e.g., ferritin, IgE) and haptens (e.g., folinic acid, methotrexate). The method is also useful for studying quantitative and qualitative aspects of antibody-antigen interaction.

Antibody Specificity

Antibodies produced by B cells are highly specific for antigen as a result of random gene recombination and somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation. As the main effector of the humoral immune system, antibodies can neutralize foreign cells. Find the latest research on antibody specificity here.
