The type-specific polysaccharide antigen of the group B streptococcus (GBS) type Ia as extracted and purified according to the procedures of Kane and Karakawa. Using this purified polysaccharide antigen, we made a sensitive and specific assay system of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and measured the titres of of the type-specific antibodies in maternal sera and cord blood sera. The titres of antibodies in 78 pregnant women (26 Ia carriers, 18 other types of GBS carriers and 34 non carriers) were compared. A mother of an infant affected by early onset infection of GBS Ia had a titre of antibody 1:10 at delivery, while 2 years later she became a non carrier and had a titre of antibody over 1:160. The titres of antibodies in 27 pair sera of mothers and cords were well correlated.

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
