[Use of solid-phase immunoenzyme analysis for determining allergen-specific IgE antibodies].
An ELISA system for the detection of allergen-specific IgE antibodies to ragweed allergen has been developed. The system is highly sensitive and specific. Ragweed pollen allergen has been obtained by the dialysis of water-soluble extract through a kidney membrane. The high molecular fraction of ragweed allergen, showing the whole of the allergenic activity detected by skin tests in untreated patients, has been used for coating polystyrene assay plates. To detect IgE antibodies to ragweed allergen, the conjugate of sheep anti-IgE antibodies with horse-radish peroxidase has been used. The level of allergen-specific IgE antibodies has been determined on the basis of the data on the optical density of the samples in comparison with that of the normal sera. The correlation factor of the results obtained in the assay of specific IgE antibodies with the newly developed assay system and with the commercial kit Phadezyme RAST manufactured by Pharmacia AB (Sweden) has proved to be 0.82 at n = 39, p less than 0.01, while the variation factor in the reproduction of the assay results has proved to be 12% at n = 40.
