title: Iso-electric focusing of aqueous humour IgG in multiple sclerosis.
abstract: Samples of aqueous fluid were obtained from 35 "controls" who were people undergoing routine cataract surgery. Similar samples were taken from seven patients with clinically definite multiple sclerosis (MS) and a previous history of optic neuritis, either at cataract surgery or as an elective procedure. Oligoclonal bands were found in only one subject who suffered from the MS-uveitis syndrome.
