Abstract: | Here we present an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) on microtiter plates for the quantitative determination of anti-D. This method is based on the solubilization of red blood cells sensitized with anti-D and the subsequent measurement of immunoglobulin G by ELISA. The measuring range of the assay is 40-5,000 IU/ml and the lowest quantifiable concentration in plasma is 0.5 IU/ml. The interassay relative standard deviation for concentrations above 130 IU/ml ranges from 3.2 to 8.1% and below 50 IU/ml from 10.5 to 19.7%. Comparison of ELISA with automated hemagglutination shows that the results of the two assays correlate well: r = 0.992, n = 26. The assay was validated for donor plasma samples and anti-D immunoglobulin preparations and it can also be used in assessing the severity of Rh (D) hemolytic disease during pregnancy. |
