Specific agglutination of tanned red cells coated with a globulin fraction of an antithyroid serum by saline extracts of thyroid glands.
نویسنده
چکیده
Experiments are described in which tanned red cells coated with a globulin fraction of human serum with a high titre of antibody to human thyroglobulin were agglutinated by saline extracts of human thyroid gland and thyroglobulin but not by other tissue extracts. It is suggested that the linkage is due to a specific antigen antibody reaction between cell-bound antithyroid antibody and thyroglobulin in solution.

A comparison of tests for thyroglobulin antibody.
A comparison is made of tests for thyroglobulin antibody, using gel diffusion, electroprecipitin, bentonite flocculation, tanned red cell agglutination, and latex slide agglutination techniques on sera from cases of Hashimoto's disease and other thyroid disorders. Any increase in gamma globulin was also noted from the serum electrophoretic pattern. The gel diffusion and electroprecipitin tests ...
متن کاملSerological activity of staphylococcal polysaccharide.
The polysaccharide from cell walls of coagulase-positive staphylococci coated both latex particles and tanned red cells for agglutination by human sera and by specific staphylococcal antisera. Treatment with trypsin or autoclaving destroyed the capacity of polysaccharide to coat particles but did not affect precipitation of antibody. Periodic acid destroyed both properties. The teichoic acid po...
متن کاملA stable sheep cell preparation for detecing thyroglobulin auto-antibodies and its clinical applications.
The preparation of stable formolized sheep cells coated with thyroglobulin and their use for the detection of auto-antibodies in human thyroiditis is described. This provides an easy laboratory test which gives results closely comparable with those using fresh tanned cells. The agglutination titres do not closely parallel the antibody content of the serum but a good correlation may be obtained ...
متن کاملInvestigations and preparation of fibrinogencoated tan A/Das PC: Investigations and preparation of fibrinogen-coated tanned sheep red cells.
The preparation and investigations of tanned sheep red cells coated with human fibrinogen are presented in detail and noted variables are discussed. Both tanning and coating are quick processes. Higher concentrations of tannic acid improved the sensitivity of the cells but required an increased concentration of stabilizing serum to prevent autoagglutination. Fibrinogen concentration above 2 mug...
متن کاملCharacterization of the "reactant" (gamma Globulin Factor) in the F Ii Precipitin Reaction and the F Ii Tanned Sheep Cell Agglutination Test
The material in gamma globulin ("reactant") which reacts with rheumatoid sera in the F II precipitin and F II tanned sheep cell agglutination tests was concentrated by precipitation with sodium sulfate. The concentrated "reactant" appeared to consist of polydispersed molecular aggregates of gamma globulin with s(20) constants as high as 40, as well as the previously described inhomogeneous aggr...
