Abstract
A method of screening a sample of body fluid obtained from an animal subject for analyte autoantibodies reactive with one or more antigenic molecules selected from pancreatic islet cell antigenic molecules (GAD, 1A2) and insulin, or one or more variants, analogs, derivatives or fragments thereof, and a kit for use in such a method. After addition of the sample one or more complexes comprising [antigenic molecule of first source]-[analyte auto antibody]-[antigenic molecule of second source]. The antigenic molecule of first source is immobilized to a solid phase, the second is labelled.
