Abstract
The binding of IgA with C-protein was studied and compared with that of jacalin. SDS- PAGE and Western blotting for various human IgA forms (IgA1, IgA2, serum IgA and secretory IgA) proved the specificity of C-protein binding and the superiority of biotinylated C-protein over biotinylated jacalin as probing immunochemical reagent for IgA detection. The obtained results proved the usefulness of employing C-protein / sepharose columns in isolation of IgA from the whole serum. Although, a linear quantitative relationship was established with pure IgA, the development of ELISA technique for quantification of IgA in whole serum was not possible in the present study. However, a proposed procedure was set for further work.
