Detection of circulating gastric carcinoma-associated antigen MG7-Ag in human sera using an established single determinant immuno-polymerase chain reaction technique

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In 1994, a novel sensitive method termed immuno-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the detection of the gastric carcinoma-associated antigen MG7-Ag in the gastric carcinoma cell line KATO III was reported. Compared with the enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay, the single determinant immuno-PCR technique could allow for as few as 20 cells to be detected and was found to show an approximately...
