Other guidelines for the use of serum free light chain measurement in the management of AL amyloidosis, [42] plasmacytoma [43] and the comparison of treatment responses in clinical trials [44] have also been published. Technical and clinical reviews of serum free light-chain measurement have recently been written by Pratt and Jagannath. [45] [46]
Pipetting anti-immunoglobulins to immunofixation panel. The panel simultaneously tests 4 patients (one in each quadrant). Each patient has 6 electrophoresis panels: The left one is a conventional serum protein electrophoresis. The remainder get solutions with anti-IgG, anti-IgA, anti-IgM, anti-kappa light chain and anti-lambda light chain ...
type 3, oligoclonal bands in CSF and serum with additional bands in CSF; type 4, identical oligoclonal bands in CSF and serum, type 5, monoclonal bands in CSF and serum, type 6, presence of a single band limited to the CSF. Type 2 and 3 indicate intrathecal synthesis, and the rest are considered as negative results (No MS).
Serum protein electrophoresis or immunofixation is positive in 67-100% of cases, while urine protein electrophoresis or immunofixation is positive in 50-100% of cases. [2] Serum free light chain measurement is positive in 100% of cases, evidence that the underlying monoclonal plasma cells secrete free light chains as well as heavy chains.
The upper part is the second dimension gel with Dako antibodies against human serum proteins. More than 50 major serum proteins can be named. Fused rocket immunoelectrophoresis of an affinity chromatographic separation of human serum proteins on con A. A 15 microlitre sample from each fraction was applied (starting from left) and allowed to ...
