Comparison of antinuclear antibody testing methods: immunofluorescence assay versus enzyme immunoassay. Performances of anti-nuclear antibody testing by immunofluorescence assay (ANA-IFA) and enzyme immunoassay (ANA-EIA) were compared in relation to patient diagnosis. A total of 467 patient serum samples ...
(IBST). The secondary antibody incubation was 1h at room temperature with 100µL of Cappel goat anti-cat IgGperoxidaseconjugate (MP Biomedicals, Santa Ana, CA) diluted 1:5000 in ELISA diluent with 5% mouse serum (Sigma, St. Louis, MO). Wells were again washed in a plate washer 5 ...
