title: A simple hemolytic micromethod for the quantitative and kinetic evaluation of the alternative activating pathway of complement.
abstract: A simple, rapid and sensitive hemolytic micromethod for quantitative and kinetic assessment of the alternative pathway of complement activity is described. The test was performed in microtitre plates using a multiscan photometer for ELISA and permits the simultaneous evaluation of as many as 20 different serum samples.
