PATENT CLAIMS Assay for detecting presence of botulinum toxin neutralizing Ab in serum sample by visual identification of Ab/antigen complex
- Obtaining serum from patient suspected of having develo
ped neutralizing Ab to botulinum toxin
- Separating botulinum toxin protein complex which has not
been treated with either Na dodecyl sulfate or trypsin by
acrylamide gel electrophoresis, said sepn occurring based
on protein size & charge
- Electrophoretically transferring separated toxin portions
onto solid support wherein each separated toxin protein is
bound to solid support at spaced apart sites
- Blocking all remaining binding sites on solid support
- Contacting solid support with patient serum sample
- Contacting solid support with an enzyme labeled anti-hu
man Ig Ab
- Contact solid support with a chromogenic substrate which
reacts with said labeling enzyme to produce colored ppcc
- Correlating presence of any colored ppcc formed at one
or more sites on solid support which contains separated
toxin protein to the presence of said botulinum toxin Ab
in human serum sample
