Enhanced detection of Australia antigen in serum hepatitis patients by discontinuous counter-immunoelectrophoresis

C Wallis et al. Appl Microbiol. 1971 May.

Abstract

The use of discontinuous counter-immunoelectrophoresis enhanced the reaction between Au/SH antigen and its antibody in agarose. The ionic strength of the Veronal buffer used in the agarose was 0.015 mu, whereas 0.075 mu Veronal (both pH 8.6) was used for anode and cathode buffers. Electroendosmosis is increased under such conditions. Au/SH antigen and antibody reacted to give sharp lines within 30 to 45 min as compared with conventional counter-immunoelectrophoresis which required 1 to 3 hr or longer.
