For the ADCP assays41 (link),42 (link), biotinylated antigens were coupled to FluoSphere NeutrAvidin beads (ThermoFisher). Immune complexes were formed by incubating 10 ul of antigen coupled beads with 10 ul of 1:100 diluted plasma samples at 37 °C for 2 hours. THP-1 monocytes (25,000 cells per well) were then added to the beads then incubation at 37 °C for 16 hours. Following incubation, cells were fixed with 4% para-formaldehyde and analyzed on an iQue analyzer (Intellicyt).
