Abstract: A method and kit for screening a sample of body fluid for at least one autoantibody to at least one antigen. A source of at least one antigen to the autoantibody is provided. A substrate having immobilized thereto at least one antibody to the antigen is also provided. The antigen source is contacted with the sample of body fluid, so as to obtain a mixture wherein the antigen is allowed to substantially bind with the autoantibody, when the latter is present in the sample of body fluid. The mixture is allowed to flow relative to the substrate so as to allow the mixture to contact the antibody immobilized to the substrate. Labeling means are provided to permit monitoring of binding of the autoanitbody and the antigen present in the mixture, so as to provide an indication of the presence of the autoanitbody in the sample of body fluid.
