Use of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to detect prostatic acid phosphatase by immunoblotting.

Abstract:

:We investigated two techniques of immunoblotting--the Western blot and the dot blot--for use in detecting prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP, EC 3.1.3.2). We used polyclonal antisera to human PAP, produced in rabbits by hyperimmunization with purified PAP, and PAP-specific monoclonal antibodies in the immunoenzymatic protocols. We conclude that PAP can be readily detected by Western blots with use of polyclonal antisera, but not with monoclonal antibodies. On the other hand, using a dot blot assay, we could easily detect PAP with both polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies.

  • Detection of microdeletion 22q11.2 in a fetus by next-generation sequencing of maternal plasma.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Efforts have been undertaken recently to assess the fetal genome through analysis of circulating cell-free (ccf) fetal DNA obtained from maternal plasma. Sequencing analysis of such ccf DNA has been shown to enable accurate prenatal detection of fetal aneuploidies, including trisomies of chromosomes 21, 18, ...
