An improved method of antigen detection on nitrocellulose: in situ staining of alkaline phosphatase conjugated antibody.
A biological stain for alkaline phosphatase was applied to detect immune complexes immobilized on nitrocellulose. This method was sensitive and useful for in situ staining of antigens, in dot-immunobinding assays and immunoblots. In addition to its sensitivity, the staining of alkaline phosphatase conjugated antibody was also highly stable, and allowed a permanent record of original immunochemical data. A rapid and simple method is also described using this technique for screening translation products of recombinant clones.
