ENA-4-Profile
ENA-4-Profile is an ELISA test system for the qualitative determination of IgG antibodies against four extractable nuclear antigens (ENA), SS-A (Ro52, Ro60) SS-B, Sm and RNP/Sm, in human serum or plasma. The test aids to the diagnosis of inflammatory rheumatic connective tissue diseases.
Antibodies against ENA are typically found in patients with lupus erythematosus (SLE), Sjoegren’s syndrome and mixed connective tissue disease. Some of these antibodies serve as markers for individual connective tissue diseases. Individual detection of these antibodies with the ENA-4-Profile test thus makes it possible to differentiate these diseases.
The ENA-4-Profile test is based on a modular principle: Each kit contains three color-coded strips for each antigen. Each strip has eight wells coated with an individual highly purified antigen target.
