Double-antibody radioimmunoassay for staphylococcal enterotoxins A and B.
A sensitive double-antibody radioimmunoassay for staphylococcal enterotoxins A and B is described. The separation of the primary antigen-antibody complex of enterotoxin A and B was achieved with an anti-rabbit gamma globulin from goats. Radioiodinated aggregate fractions of staphylococcal enterotoxins exhibited reduced immunological activity and showed little competition with non-radioactive exterotoxin. The radioimmunoassay was successfully applied for the quantitation of enterotoxins in food.
