Abstract
A rapid, sensitive, and reproducible enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), for the detection of the serological sex-specific (Sxs) antigen (formerly termed H-Y antigen; see Introduction), is described. This assay uses bovine testes extract as the solid phase antigen, and high-titer anti-Sxs antisera and a urease-conjugated anti rat-IgG as the first and second antibody respectively. The urea containing substrate causes a pH shift in a positive reaction, which in turn is visualized by the use of bromocresol purple as a pH indicator. The method, and some representative applications of it, are described in detail.Entities:
