Immunoelectrophoresis
 Immunoelectrophoresis refers to precipitation in agar under an
electric field.
 It is a process of combination of immuno-diffusion and
electrophoresis.
 An antigen mixture is first separated into its component parts
by electrophoresis and then tested by double immuno-diffusion.
 Antigens are placed into wells cut in a gel (without antibody)
and electrophoresed. A trough is then cut in the gel into which
antibodies are placed.
 The antibodies diffuse laterally to meet diffusing antigen, and
lattice formation and precipitation occur permitting
determination of the nature of the antigens.
 The term “immunoelectrophoresis” was first coined by Grabar
and Williams in 1953.
Principle
When electric current is applied to a slide layered with
gel, antigen mixture placed in wells is separated into
individual antigen components according to their
charge and size. Following electrophoresis, the
separated antigens are reacted with specific antisera
placed in troughs parallel to the electrophoretic
migration and diffusion is allowed to occur. Antiserum
present in the trough moves toward the antigen
components resulting in formation of separate
precipitin lines in 18-24 hrs, each indicating reaction
between individual proteins with its antibody.
Procedure
 Agarose gel is prepared on a glass slide put in a horizontal position.
 Using sample template, wells are borne on the application zone carefully.
 The sample is diluted 2:3 with protein diluent solution (20μl antigen solution
+10 μl diluent).
 Using a 5 μl pipette, 5 μl of control and sample is applied across each
corresponding slit (Control slit and Sample slit).
 The gel is placed into the electrophoresis chamber with the samples on the
cathode side, and electrophoresis run for 20 mins/ 100 volts.
 After electrophoresis completes, 20 μl of the corresponding antiserum is added
to troughs in moist chamber and incubated for 18- 20 hours at room
temperature on a horizontal position.
 The agarose gel is placed on a horizontal position, and dried with blotter
sheets.
 The gel in saline solution is soaked for 10 minutes and the drying and washing
repeated twice again.
 The gel is dried at a temperature less than 70°C and may be stained with
Results
 Presence of elliptical precipitin arcs represents antigen-
antibody interaction.
 Absence of formation of precipitate suggests no
reaction.
 Different antigens (proteins) can be identified based on
the intensity, shape, and position of the precipitation
lines.
Applications
 The test helps in identification and approximate quantization of
various proteins present in the serum,in protein identification
and in immunology.
 Immunoelectrophoresis is used in patients with suspected
monoclonal and polyclonal gammopathies.
 The method is used to detect normal as well as abnormal
proteins, such as myeloma proteins in human serum.
 Used to analyze complex protein mixtures containing different
antigens.
 The medical diagnostic use is of value where certain proteins are
suspected of being absent (e.g., hypogammaglobulinemia) or
overproduced (e.g., multiple myeloma).
 This method is useful to monitor antigen and antigen-antibody
purity and to identify a single antigen in a mixture of antigens.
