A modified fast micro method for spectrotypic/clonotypic analysis of human IgG1-4 antibodies against bacterial virulence antigens of polysaccharide or protein nature is described. Serum samples of as small volumes as 0.5 microliter were isoelectrically focused in micro agarose gels made in plexiglass matrices and blotted using immunoaffinity-mediated capillary blotting onto nitrocellulose membranes previously coated with antigen. The bands of the antigen-specific antibodies were identified with respect to isotypes, light chain types, allotypes or idiotypes by incubating the nitrocellulose membranes with mouse monoclonal anti-human IgG subclass antisera and then with alkaline phosphatase-conjugated rabbit anti-mouse immunoglobulins. The method was applied for characterization of human monoclonals against tetanus toxoid (TT) and for the analysis of variable patterns of clonotypes in IgG subclass-deficient patients. The usefulness of the technique was also demonstrated by comparing the variable specificity and reactivity of different commercial monoclonals against human IgG subclasses. This method is fast, specific, sensitive, uses little material, is simple and reproducible.
