Abstract:

A novel enzyme immunoassay of anti-insulin IgG in guinea pig serum is described. Guinea pig anti-insulin serum diluted with nonspecific guinea pig serum was incubated with dinitrophenyl biotinyl nonspecific rabbit IgG-insulin conjugate and a rabbit (anti-dinitrophenyl bovine serum albumin) IgG-coated polystyrene ball. After washing to eliminate nonspecific guinea pig IgG in the diluted serum, the polystyrene ball was incubated with dinitrophenyl-L-lysine to elute the complex of anti-insulin IgG and the conjugate. The eluate was incubated with an avidin-coated polystyrene ball. Finally, the amount of guinea pig anti-insulin IgG in the complex trapped onto the avidin-coated polystyrene ball was measured by incubation with rabbit (anti-guinea pig IgG) Fab'-peroxidase conjugate. This enzyme immunoassay was 10,000-fold more sensitive than the conventional enzyme immunoassay using insulin-coated polystyrene ball and rabbit (anti-guinea pig IgG) Fab'-peroxidase conjugate.
