Quantitation of sheep IgG1, IgG2, IgA, IgM and albumin by radioimmunoassay.
A solid phase radioimmunoassay procedure for the measurement of immunoglobulins (IgG1, IgG2, IgA and IgM) and albumin in sheep body fluids (serum, intestinal lymph, caudal mediastinal lymph, bile, mammary secretions and intestinal secretions) is described. This method was found to be easy to perform, rapid, sensitive and reproducible. Results obtained were consistent with those previously reported using radial immunodiffusion and nephelometric techniques.
