Surface plasmon resonance unveils important pitfalls of enzyme-linked immunoassay for the detection of anti-infliximab antibodies in patients’ sera

Abstract Measurements of serum concentrations of therapeutic antibodies and anti-drug antibodies (ADA) can support clinical decisions for the management of non-responders, optimizing the therapy. In the present study we compared the results obtained by classical ELISA and a recently proposed surface...
