title: [2-site competitive immunoenzyme analysis based on monoclonal antibodies for the detection and titration of antihemagglutinating measles antibodies].
abstract: Using monoclonal antibodies (MCA) to measles virus (strain Leningrad-16) hemagglutinin, a competitive enzyme immunoassay (cEIA) was developed for the detection and titration of antihemagglutinating antibodies in human sera. Serum samples from children, collected in measles foci, were tested in cEIA, SP-EIA, HI, and PHA tests. The results evidence a high correlation of antihemagglutinin titres in cEIA and HI tests, the correlation coefficient of cEIA and PHA being 97.7%. The cEIA based on MCA to measles virus hemagglutinin is highly specific for the detection and titration of measles antihemagglutinins, it does not involve the use of simian erythrocytes. A significant advantage of this test system consists in the possibility of using unpurified antigen prepared from the infected cell lysate.
