MicroAMS®

Antibody Monitoring System: HLA Class I/II

A solid phase ELISA for the detection of IgG antibodies to donor-specific HLA Class I and HLA Class II antigens

MicroAMS® is designed to detect donor-specific HLA alloantibodies in transplant recipients that may lead to early graft loss or chronic rejection. Class I and Class II glycoproteins are solubilized from donor cells or tissue and captured using class-specific monoclonal antibodies which have been immobilized in the microwells. The recipient serum of interest is then added. A color change indicates the presence of donor-reactive antibodies.

  • For detection of donor-specific HLA antibodies - Up to 44 tests against one donor for the presence of both Class I and Class II antibodies
  • For detection of IgG antibodies
  • No interference from antibodies to non-HLA glycoproteins
  • Uses lysates (solubilized donor glycoproteins) that can be made from lymphocytes isolated from peripheral blood or cells from spleen
  • New! Reduced volume requirement for both donor lysate and patient serum
  • Lysates can be prepared in advance and stored for an extended period at -80°C
