Abstract: | The ABH group in a trace amount of saliva could be determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using an avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex (ABC) technique. In this method ABH blood group substances as a solid phase are adsorbed to wells of a microtiter plate made of polystyrene. The primary antibody corresponding to the blood antigen adheres onto the wells, and reacts with the biotinylated secondary antibody. The previously formed ABC reagent is then added to the above wells, and finally the absorbance produced by the interaction of the peroxidase activity with a chromogenic substance is measured at 492 nm. This method proved to be clearly more sensitive for the detection of ABH blood groups in secretor-saliva than the conventional hemagglutination inhibition test. Also the ABH group of non-secretor-saliva could be easily determined by this method. |
