Nephelometric determination of carbohydrate deficient transferrin.
We describe a technique for measuring carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) in serum. Serum transferrin fractions are separated by anion-exchange chromatography on microcolumns. Sialic acid-deficient transferrin fractions are collected in the eluate, and transferrin is then quantified by a rate-nephelometric technique. Imprecision (CV) was 4-5% within-run and 7-9% between runs (n = 15). Comp...
متن کاملRate nephelometric assay of serum lipoprotein(a).
This nephelometric assay of serum lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is characterized by the use of a specific antibody to generate a high rate of light-scatter formation and the elimination of nonspecific reactions from serum samples by diluting samples in phosphate-buffered saline containing polymer enhancer polyethylene glycol (PEG), 40 g/L, and detergent before the assay. We reacted 100 microL of sixfo...
متن کاملSeminal fluid anaphylaxis
Results A 54 year-old woman with no atopic history was referred for evaluation after four progressive episodes of post-coital reactions with her husband. The first two episodes consisted of itching of both palms and soles of feet with minimal vaginal pruritus. After abstaining, a third episode a month later consisted of hives on the patient’s legs and back with significant vaginal pruritus. The...
متن کاملRapid method for beta2-transferrin in cerebrospinal fluid leakage using an automated immunofixation electrophoresis system.
BACKGROUND Beta(2)-transferrin (beta-2 trf) is a desialated isoform of transferrin found only in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), ocular fluids, and perilymph. In aural, nasal, and wound drainages, this protein is an important marker of CSF leakage. Immunofixation electrophoresis (IFE) on agarose gels is a widely accepted qualitative technique for detection of small amounts of beta-2 trf, but disadva...
متن کاملNephelometric assay of apolipoprotein A-I with a centrifugal analyzer.
We developed an automated immunonephelometric assay for quantification of human apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I) with a fluorescence light-scattering microcentrifugal analyzer. The presence of polyethylene glycol and Tween 20 in the reaction mixture ensures maximum exposure of the antigenic sites of the apoprotein so that immune complex formation occurs more rapidly (reaction is complete within 2 m...
