    Abstract:
    The enzyme immunoassay (EIA) system for the determination of antibodies to capsular polysaccharides of pneumococci, serotypes 1, 3, 6B, 8, 9N, 15F, 23F, and C-polysaccharide has been developed on the basis of poly-L-lysin-modified antigens. The use of isotype-specific conjugates in this system permits the detection of IgG and IgA antibodies in different biological fluids: blood serum, pleural fluid, saliva, milk. Samples obtained from children with pneumococcal infection and from nursing mothers have been studied. As shown in this study, the EIA system can be used for the evaluation of the dynamics of pneumococcal infection in children.
