title: A solid phase enzyme immunoassay for serum amyloid A (SAA) protein. Clinical evaluation.
abstract: An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for serum amyloid A protein using commercially available antisera has been developed. Immulon II microtitre plates are coated with undenatured sera by overnight incubation at 4 degrees C. The assay combines the advantages of simplicity, rapidity, precision, sensitivity and safety and confirms the suitability of measuring serum amyloid A protein as a sensitive marker during the acute-phase response. This method permits the rapid processing of a large number of samples.
