摘要:
Antigens from chlamydial or gonococcal organisms in specimens containing whole blood, mucus or components thereof can be rapidly and sensitively determined using a polyamide microporous membrane which is coated with a surfactant. This determination is accomplished by contacting extracted antigen with the coated polyamide microporous membrane which is substantially free of any particulate matter. The membrane has an average pore size of from 1 to 10 µmeter. Within 10 minutes of that contacting, antigen bound to the coated membrane is contacted with chlamydial or gonococcal antibody, respectively, so as to form an immunological complex on the membrane. The presence of the complex on the membrane in then determined as a measure of the amount of chlamydial or gonococcal antigen present in the specimen.

摘要:
Antigens from chlamydial organisms in specimens can be rapidly and sensitively determined using a polyamide microporous membrane which has surface hydroxy groups. This determination is accomplished by contacting extracted antigen with the polyamide microporous membrane for a sufficient time for the antigen to bind to the membrane. Antigen bound to the membrane is contacted with chlamydial antibody so as to form an immunological complex on the membrane. The presence of the complex on the membrane is then determined as a measure of the amount of chlamydial antigen present in the specimen. The use of this particular membrane improves reagent keeping and reduces background in the assay.
