Abstract:
A sample of a biological material having individual-specific antibodies is contacted with an array of less than about 200 proteins on a support to bind some of the individual-specific antibodies to the proteins of the array to form immune complexes. A detection agent with an interacting protein for conjugation to a marker is applied to the array to detect the immune complexes and obtain an antibody profile, which is compared to a known antibody profile obtained from an individual. The array may further include control spots including human IgG to form control complexes and volume assessment spots including volume determination proteins to form volume complexes. Intensity of the control complexes may be detected to determine if results of the identifying are complete. Intensity of the volume complexes may be detected to determine if a volume of the sample is sufficient for an accurate result.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A method for determining a plurality of proteins for discriminating and positively identifying an individual based from a biological sample. The method may include profiling a biological sample from a plurality of individuals against a protein array including a plurality of proteins. The protein array may include proteins attached to a support in a preselected pattern such that locations of the proteins are known. The biological sample may be contacted with the protein array such that a portion of antibodies in the biological sample reacts with and binds to the proteins forming immune complexes. A statistical analysis method, such as discriminant analysis, may be performed to determine discriminating proteins for distinguishing individuals. Proteins of interest may be used to form a protein array. Such a protein array may be used, for example, to compare a forensic sample from an unknown source with a sample from a known source.
