[The assessment of the parallelism in the results of measuring an analyzable substance and the calibrator in immunological assays].

The method for checking the results of measurements of the analyzed substance and the calibrator for parallelism the immunological testing kit ABICAP-test-DIPHTHERIA, produced by ABION (Germany), is described. The international standard sample of diphtheria antitoxin human serum was used as calibrator, and human serum No. 18, obtained from the Biomed Group (Russia), was used as the substance to be analyzed. The described method made it possible to detect the parallelism of "dose-response" curves with the relative error not exceeding 20%. Such accuracy proved to be sufficient for practical purposes and was in agreement with the amplitude of oscillations in measured optical densities. The shift of graphs along the abscissa made it possible to estimate the concentration of the serum as exceeding the concentration of the standard sample 2.3 times. The use of analytical approximation for the standard seems to be an important feature in the described method.

[Certification of a kit for immunologic tests].

A diagnostic kit for the determination of IgG antibodies to diphtheria toxin ("Abion", Germany) the use of analytical columns "Abicap" was studied in the specialized laboratory of the Tarasevich State Control Institute with a view to determine the possibility of its official registration in the Russian Federation. The kit was evaluated by the following criteria: the correspondence of the specified properties of the preparation to those actually observed; meeting the norms stated in the documents supplied with the kit and WHO requirements; the presence of advantages in comparison with the enzyme immunoassay. In the course of the trial positive results were obtained on all these points.

[A multistage metrologic approach to the problem of evaluation of the results of the quantitative enzyme immunoassay determination of antitoxic antibodies].

To evaluate a kit for the enzyme immunoassay (ELISA), the metrological approach was used: the total error of the method for the quantitative determination of antibodies, regarded as a multistage process, was determined as the result of the accumulation of errors made in measurements at different stages. The proposed algorithm made it possible to attest the positive control serum, to determine the total error of measurements, to mark a linear section in a limited range of values on a graduation diagram. This led to obtaining well-grounded results, comparable with the results of the reaction of neutralization at good correlation (lc = 0.9).
