[Anti-Candida albicans IgM antibody: correlation between immunofluorescence and ultracentrifugation (author's transl)]. 1978

R Guinet, and N Absi

The indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) technique for specific IgM anti-Candida albicans was applied to 158 sera and compared with sucrose density gradient centrifugation. For detection of specific IgM results of both methods were in agreement for 157 sera (99.36%). Specific IgM titers determined with IFA on unfractionated sera followed those found on fractionated sera. The results show that specific IgM anti-C. albicans can be identified and titrated by the immunofluorescent technique.

D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.
