Usage
Alba et al. Anti-dsDNA, anti-Sm antibodies, and the lupus anticoagulant: significant factors associated with lupus nephritis. Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases 62,556-560 (2003) "'Antinuclear antibodies were measured by indirect immuno-fluorescence on rodent liver cells, anti-dsDNA antibodies by radioimmunoassay (Farr assay), and antibodies to ENA by countercurrent immunoelectrophoresis (CIE) using bovine spleen and rabbit thymus extracts. Results were considered positive if the assays had ever been positive during the follow up period. Anticardiolipin antibodies (aCL) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), using standardised methods.'"
