  • Method of detecting antibodies
    Patent number: 4855242
    Abstract: A method for determining the quantity of an antibody in a sample, the method having the steps of: (1) providing a labelled antigen to the antibody; (2) contacting the labelled antigen with the sample in solution to form a labelled antigen-antibody complex; (3) providing an agent for precipitating the complex; (4) mixing the solution containing the labelled antigen-antibody complex with the precipitating agent to produce a precipitate and a supernatant; the supernatant containing labelled antigen and the precipitate containing the labelled antigen-antibody complex and uncomplexed labelled antigen; and (5) measuring the quantity of label in the precipitate or the supernatant in a manner substantially independent of the amount of uncomplexed labelled antigen in the precipitate.
