Multi-well ELISA based on independent peptide antigens for antibody capture. Application to Lyme disease serodiagnosis.
description:
A panel of overlapping 12mers was synthesized to span the entire length of the B. burgdorferi (B31 strain) Osp A protein.
Sera from patients with a clinical diagnosis of Lyme disease were tested for reactivity to the BSA-OspA4 peptide conjugate. Seven of 17 patients reacted with this peptide conjugate.
