Notes:
Summary A radioimmunological assay procedure allows the measurement of small amounts of tetanus antibodies; it should also be applicable to antibodies against other soluble antigens. It is based on the competition between dissolved and solid phase antibodies for labelled antigen. In the range of experimental error, the same antibody titers are found with the radioimmunological and with the mouse protection test. The detection limit is in the range of 0.001 IU/ml. The reaction conditions allow the determination of antibodies in multiple samples.
