<p>There is provided a method for the analysis of circulating antibodies comprising the steps:
a) providing an analysis device comprising a substrate, and provided on said substrate at least one sample addition zone, at least one retaining zone, at least one sink, and at least one flow path connecting the sample addition zone, the retaining zone and the sink, wherein the flow path is open and comprises projections substantially vertical to the surface of said substrate and having a height (H), diameter (D) and reciprocal spacing (t1, t2) such that lateral capillary flow of said sample is achieved and such that cells can flow through the projections, wherein said retaining zone comprises at least one affinity binding means to which cell structures are bound,
b) adding at least one sample to a sample addition zone, and
c) reading a result,
wherein circulating antibodies directed against cell structures are determined.</p> |
