Profile of anti-Mtb antibodies in the donor sera. Panel (a) shows Ab titres against membrane and cytosolic antigens, determined by ELISA. Median, interquartile range and individual OD values of five donor sera (diluted 1 : 400) are shown. Panel (b) depicts immunoblotting of membrane antigens with the mAb CS-35 showing presence of LAM (lane 1) and with donor sera (lanes 2–6) showing Abs to various antigens including the characteristic band of LAM. Panels (c) and (d) show, respectively, competitive binding of serum Abs (mean OD ± s.e. of five sera) to the membrane antigens LAM and Acr in presence of mAbs CS-35 and IT-4. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.02, ***p < 0.01.
