Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia results from the placental transfer of maternal platelet IgG antibodies (alloantibodies) formed against incompatible fetal platelet antigens. For example, HPA-1a (PLA-A1; Zw) negative mothers carrying an HPA-1a positive fetus develop the anti-HPA-1a antibodies that are found in 80% of neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia cases. Additional platelet antigens involved include HPA-5 (Br; Zv) (10% of cases), HPA-2 (Ko), HPA-3 (Bak; Lek), HPA-4 (Pen; Yuk), and HPA-6 (Ca; Tu). Involvement of HLA class I antibodies has been suspected in a few cases, but is not yet proven.

Rat Platelet antibody IgG (PA-IgG) ELISA Kit employs the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to PA-IgG. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated PA-IgG and incubated. The competitive inhibition reaction is launched between with HRP labeled PA-IgG and unlabeled PA-IgG with the antibody. A substrate solution is added to the wells and the color develops in opposite to the amount of PA-IgG in the sample. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
