AESKULISA dsDNA-G is a solid phase enzyme immunoassay with human recombinant double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) for the quantitative and qualitative detection of IgG antibodies against dsDNA in human serum. Anti-dsDNA antibodies mainly recognize the phosphat units of the DNA, thus these autoantibodies also bind single stranded DNA (ssDNA). To ensure correct quantitation of anti-dsDNA antibodies the used antigen has been proven to be free of contamination with ssDNA. The assay is a tool in the differential diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
A collection of reagents and other associated materials intended to be used for the qualitative and/or quantitative detection of antibodies to double stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA) in a clinical specimen, using an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) method.
