Reactivities of immunoglobulin E and immunoglobulin G subclasses identified by isoelectric focusing-immunoprint in allergic patients. 1989

Probing of IgE or IgG subclass reactivities on single allergenic components in an extract is tedious and time-consuming under native conditions. Isoelectric focusing immunoblotting combines a powerful, highly resolving native separation method with the specificity and sensitivity of immunological test methods. This method is easy and quick to perform. The potential usefulness of this method is demonstrated by eight examples of a type I or type III allergy analyzing IgE and IgG subclass reactivities and their distribution.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007073 Immunoglobulin E An immunoglobulin associated with MAST CELLS. Overexpression has been associated with allergic hypersensitivity (HYPERSENSITIVITY, IMMEDIATE). IgE
D007074 Immunoglobulin G The major immunoglobulin isotype class in normal human serum. There are several isotype subclasses of IgG, for example, IgG1, IgG2A, and IgG2B.
