Abstract
An assay method for detecting antipolyvinyl alcohol (anti-PVAL) antibodies in test samples, such as serum, is described. The method comprises combining a sample to be tested for an anti-PVAL antibody with polyvinyl alcohol (PVAL) to form a binary complex of the PVAL with an anti-PVAL antibody in the sample, followed by reacting an indicator reagent with the binary complex to form a labeled ternary complex, and then detecting the presence or absence of the ternary complex in the sample. Kits for performing the test are also described.
