Increasing temperature denatures canine IgG reducing its ability to inhibit heartworm antigen detection
BACKGROUND: Immune complexing of target antigen to high affinity host antibody is recognized to impact the sensitivity of commercial heartworm antigen tests. Published information describing the effect of heat on interfering canine host antibodies is lacking. Immune complex dissociation (ICD) by hea...
