An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for anti-chlamydial secretory immunoglobulin A in guinea pig tears

P M Finney et al. J Immunol Methods. .

Abstract

A method is described which permits the assay of specific secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) antibodies produced by guinea pigs in response to ocular infection with the guinea pig inclusion conjunctivitis strain of Chlamydia psittaci (GPIC agent). The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) developed was shown to be more sensitive and less subjective than the micro-immunofluorescence assay as a means of assaying specific antibody.
