A novel general and efficient technique for dissociating antigen in circulating immune complexes

Abstract: Circulating immune complexes (CICs) are produced during the immune response. It is more clinically important to establish a general and efficient CICs dissociation technique for the detection of antigens for CICs other than the detection of free antigens in the serum. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) two-precipitation separation and glycine-HCl as a buffer system were employed to develop a general and efficient buffer dissociation technique to separate CICs from serum and dissociate antigens from CICs. The measuremen… Show more

“…CIC separating agent A, CIC separating agent B, and CIC dissolving agent were prepared as previously reported with slight modifications [19]. Briefly, to prepare the CIC separating agent, 0.15 M borate buffer containing 0.132 M NaCl and 0.02% ProClin 300 biological preservative was mixed with 8% and 7% polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000 to yield CIC separating agent A and CIC separating agent B, respectively.…”

“…Four free HBsAg-positive samples (samples 1–4: 2.68–182.92 IU/ml), 3 free anti-HBs-positive samples (samples 5–7: 23.89–897.32 mIU/ml, of which sample 6 and 7 were from acute HBV-infected patients in the recovery phase), 1 sample (sample 8) negative for both free HBsAg and free anti-HBs, and the prepared HBsAg-IC positive control I and positive control II were independently deposited and separated using the PEG double-precipitation separation method [19] and the traditional PEG precipitation separation method [22]. The CIC antibody dissociation technique developed by our group was then used to dissociate anti-HBs from HBsAg-ICs and the corresponding blank control.…”
