METHOD FOR ASSESSING LOCAL HUMORAL ANTICHOLERAIC IMMUNITY IN VITRO SIMULATED IN EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC G09B23/28 G01N33/531 A61K38/08 A61P31/04 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: method involves immunising with 5×10⁷ microbial cells Vibrio cholerae 5879; 10 days later, a common pool of anticholeraic Ig is recovered from enteric washing liquid. That is combined with producing the primary enterocyte culture from intact mice. Thereafter, the doubly-diluted anticholeraic Ig are applied in an amount of 3 ml on a monolayer of erythrocytes formed in wells of culture panels. The latter are added with alive choleraic vibrions of the strain Vibrio cholerae 5879, 40 m.c. per 1 erythrocyte and incubated for 3 hours. Then, the panels are washed three times, fixed with ethanol for 20 minutes and stained by Romanowsky-Giemsa. Local humoral anticholeraic immunity is assessed under the microscope by the number of vibrions stained in dark blue and attached to one erythrocyte.

EFFECT: method enables assessing specific local humoral immunity and intensifying the anti-adhesive activity of the common pool of anticholeraic immunoglobulin.
