Abstract

See full text

A sample of a biological material having individual-specific antibodies is contacted with an array of less than about 200 proteins on a support to bind some of the individual-specific antibodies to the proteins of the array to form immune complexes. A detection agent with an interacting protein for conjugation to a marker is applied to the array to detect the immune complexes and obtain an antibody profile, which is compared to a known antibody profile obtained from an individual. The array may further include control spots including human IgG to form control complexes and volume assessment spots including volume determination proteins to form volume complexes. Intensity of the control complexes may be detected to determine if results of the identifying are complete. Intensity of the volume complexes may be detected to determine if a volume of the sample is sufficient for an accurate result.
