Antigen Antibody

The immune elimination of soluble BSA, following an intravenous injection, is accompanied by the appearance of circulating antigen-antibody complexes. The pattern of the appearance of circulating antigen-antibody complexes and the immune elimination of antigen probably depends on the amount of antigen injected, the rate of antibody synthesis, and perhaps, the quality of antibody produced. There is no relationship between the I* antigen-antibody complexes detected during the immune response in rabbits by ammonium sulfate precipitation and the material precipitated from immune sera as a result of treatment with alkali. Alkali-precipitable material present in the serum of rabbits at a time when I* antigen is also present contain at most only traces of the antigen.

Abstract We describe a radioimmunoassay for total urinary estriol in pregnancy. A 25-mul aliquot of the urine specimen is acid hydrolyzed, neutralized, and diluted before assay. We use rabbit antisera against estriol-6-(O-carboxymethyl)oxime/bovine serum albumin and ammonium sulfate precipitation at room temperature. Results are unaffected by glucose or methenamine mandelate, a urinary tract antiseptic. Using semi-automatic pipetting equipment, one laboratory technologist can complete 50 assays within 8 h. This technique is both reliable and convenient and should decrease the expense of routine estriol assays.

ABSTRACT Mice were immunized with a mixture of four steroid antigens: dehydroepiandrosterone (DHA), oestradiol, progesterone and testosterone linked to bovine serum albumin through the 7, 6, 11α and 17β positions respectively. The response to immunization varied widely with no one mouse producing an optimal response to all four steroids. In the two fusion experiments performed, antibodies to all four antigens were developed. Data are presented which show that the immune response of the spleen donor is related to the relative numbers and quality of the antibodies produced to each steroid. Despite the structural identity of the progesterone and testosterone haptens, antibodies elicited in response to their respective antigens could readily be distinguished from each other. From the large number of monoclonal antibodies obtained those most useful for radioimmunoassay were three high affinity antibodies to oestradiol and two antibodies raised against DHA but with high affinity for DHA sulphate.

This study aims to determine the effect of the substitution of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with cattle blood serum and egg white in the diluent of Cauda epididymal Plasma 2 (CEP-2) on sperm quality of Limousin cattle during cooling at 3-5 C. The research material used was rejected Limousin bull sperm (motility of 50-60%) from Artificial Insemination Centre Singosari, Malang. This research was a laboratory experiment using a randomized block design which was composed of six treatments with 10 replications, those were T0 as controls ((90% CEP-2 with BSA + 10% egg yolk); T1 (83.84% CEP-2 + 6.16% cattle blood serum + 10% egg yolk); T2 (81.84% CEP-2 + 8.16% cattle blood serum + 10% egg yolk); dan T3 (90% CEP-2 + 0,4% egg white + 10% egg yolk); T4 (90% CEP-2 + 0.8% egg white + 10% egg yolk); and T5 (90% CEP-2 without BSA + 10% egg yolk). Parameters measured were the percentage of motility, viability, and abnormality of sperms. Results of research after 48 hours of storage showed that the percentage of sperm motility in T0, T1, T2, T3, T4, and T5 were 40.50±5.90, 36±36.16, 34.00±6.58, 40.50±3.69, 38.50±3.37, and 38.50±4.12, respectively, while the percentage of sperms viability were 75.16±4.30, 70.50±2.88, 73.80±2.80, 74.80±3.30, 75.13±3.13, and 74.03±4.13, respectively, and the percentage of sperms abnormality were 10.14±2.34, 10.62±1.34, 11.33±2.00, 10.94±2.82, 10.02±1.95, and 10.78±1.96, respectively. In conclusion, CEP-2 diluent with or without the addition of 19% egg yolk in BSA and the substitution of BSA with 0.4-0.8% egg white can maintain semen quality to hour of 48 in cold storage.This study aims to determine the effect of the substitution of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with cattle blood serum and egg white in the diluent of Cauda epididymal Plasma 2 (CEP-2) on sperm quality of Limousin cattle during cooling at 3-5 C.
