Goat IgG Test Kit Radial Immunodiffusion Test Kit

Radial Immunodiffusion Test for Quantitation of Goat IgG in Serum or Plasma.

1. Summary

Single radial immunodiffusion tests have evolved from the work of Fahey and McKelvey1 and Mancini et al2.  They are specific for the various proteins in serum or other fluids and depend on the reaction of each protein with its specific antibody.

When the wells in antibody containing gels are completely filled with the antigen, the precipitin rings that develop after 10-20 hours at room temperature are measured.  The diameter of the ring and the logarithm (base 10) of the protein concentration are related in a linear fashion.  Using appropriate reference standards, the concentration of unknown samples may be measured.

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is one of the first lines of defenses against encapsulated bacteria and streptococci.
