- Abstract
The article describes a method for detecting underlycosylated immunoglobulin A (IgA) in sera of patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Jacalin has been used for isolation of IgA. However, the use of Jacalin to purify IgA from sera of patients with IgAN may introduce a substantial bias. If established, this method may be valuable for an accurate assessment of the disease activity if IgAN.
