[Determination of antibody affinity by using antigenic and antibody immunosorbents].
To determine the affinity of the active centers of antibodies, cellulose immunosorbents for antibodies and antigens have been used. The fixation of serum proteins on the sorbent, the interaction of fixed antibodies with a monovalent antigen and the graphic analysis of the results thus obtained allows one to assess not only the concentration of the effective active centers on the sorbent, but also all known characteristics of antibody affinity: the average association constant K0, the common association constant Kt, the geometric association constant Kg, the average association constants which determine the affinity of different antibody groups. The use of antigenic immunosorbent permits one to determine the value of the average internal association constant K0. The determination of antibody affinity in hyperimmune antiplague sera by means of immunosorbents and red blood cells coated with capsular antigen has resulted in obtaining similar values of affinity indices.
