Immunodotting assay

Manufactured by EUROIMMUN
Sourced in Germany

The Immunodotting assay is a diagnostic tool used in clinical laboratories. It is designed to detect and identify specific antibodies or antigens in a sample. The assay involves the application of a sample onto a membrane or strip, followed by the detection of target analytes through the use of labeled reagents. The core function of the Immunodotting assay is to provide a qualitative or semi-quantitative analysis of the presence and/or amount of the target molecules in the tested sample.

The levels of blood lipids, including triglyceride (TG) (BIOSINO BIO-TECHNOLOGY&SCIENCE INC, Beijing, China; normal range: 0.56–1.7mmol/L),total cholesterol (TCHO) (BIOSINO BIO-TECHNOLOGY&SCIENCE INC, Beijing, China; normal range: 3.4–5.2mmol/L), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (SEKISUI MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY (CHINA) LTD, Beijing, China; normal range: 0.9–1.4mmol/L) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (SEKISUI MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY (CHINA) LTD, Beijing, China; normal range: 2.1–3.1mmol/L), for all the patients were detected before the day of renal biopsy.
Serum antinuclear antibodies (ANA) were detected using indirect immunofluorescence assay (EUROIMMUN, Lübeck, Germany) and anti-double-stranded DNA antibodies were detected using Crithidia luciliae indirect immunofluorescence test (EUROIMMUN, Lübeck, Germany). Anti-extractable nuclear antigen (ENA) antibodies, including anti-Sm, anti-SSA, anti-SSB and anti-RNP antibody, were detected using immunodotting assay (EUROIMMUN, Lübeck, Germany). Anti-cardiolipin antibodies were detected using ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) (EUROIMMUN). Serum C3 was determined using rate nephelometry assay (Beckman-Coulter, IMMAGE, USA, normal range>0.85g/L).

Diagnostic Utility of Salivary Gland Biopsy

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ANA were detected using an indirect immunofluorescence assay (EUROIMMUN, Lübeck, Germany), and anti-extractable nuclear antigen antibodies, including anti-SSA, anti-Ro52, and anti-SSB/La antibodies, were measured using immunodotting assay (EUROIMMUN). In this study, most patients had positive ANA and ANA titers were recorded as four grades (1:100, 1:320, 1:1000, ≥ 1:3200). All patients underwent LSG biopsies. Sufficient LSGs require at least four minor salivary glands to ensure a minimum glandular surface area of 8 mm2, but if the minor salivary glands are small, this number rises to six. The oral pathologist then has sufficient sample to determine the focus score or the presence of NSCS [4 (link)]. H&E sections were assessed by the same experienced pathologist, and pathology reports were recorded according to the Chisholm and Mason grading system (grades 0–4) [15 (link)]. FS was calculated for each patient.

Evaluating Autoantibodies and Salivary Gland Pathology in pSS

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) were detected using an indirect immunofluorescence assay (EUROIMMUN, Lübeck, Germany), and anti-extractable nuclear antigen antibodies including anti-SSA, anti-SSB, and anti-Ro-52 antibodies were measured using immunodotting assay (EUROIMMUN, Lübeck, Germany). In this study, all pSS patients were ANA positive and ANA titres were graded at 4 levels (1:320, 1:1000, 1:3200, and 1:10000).
All patients underwent LSG biopsies. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) -stained sections were assessed by the same experienced pathologist, and pathology reports were recorded according to the Chisholm and Mason grading system (grade 0–4) [19 (link)]. The focus score (FS) which referred to the mean number of mononuclear cell infiltrates with 50 or more inflammatory cells per 4 mm2 of periductal or perivascular tissue [20 (link)] was recorded for each patient.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
