Tetanus toxoid Assays
IgG antibodies to Tetanus toxoid are produced by the immune system following infection with C.tetani (in response to the presence of the toxin), or in response to immunisation with a Tetanus vaccine. The measurement of specific IgG antibodies to Tetanus toxoid pre- and post- vaccination is important in the assessment of the individual's ability to elicit an immune response to protein antigens. This assay may also be used to determine the immune status of the individual with respect to Tetanus infection.
Microwells are coated with Tetanus toxoid. Kits are available to measure the specific IgG or the IgG1 levels in serum.
