Abstract
A sensitive (1 microL of unconcentrated sample), specific (IgG Fc) and economical (10 p/test) method for the detection of oligoclonal bands in cerebrospinal fluid is presented. Using commonly available technology (agarose gel electrophoresis) and giving results within 6 h, the approach used here is a powerful tool in the investigation of immunoglobulin abnormalities in many biological fluids.
