Sample Screening Dilution 1:10 This test used for the qualitative determination of human antibodies of immunoglobulin class IgG against granulocyte cytoplasm (ANCA) in patient samples for the diagnosis of the following diseases: granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA Wegener's granulomatosis), eosinophile granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA Churg-Strauss syndrome,) microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), primary sclerosing cholangitis and chronic inflammatory bowel diseases (mainly ulcerative colitis). The indirect immunofluorescence test (IIFT) is considered the gold standard for the detection of antibodies against neutrophil granulocytes. The International Consensus Statement 1994 (International Chapel Hill Consensus Conference 2012) recommends screening for ANCA using IIF and the confirmation of IIFT-positive sera with both Anti-PR3 and Anti-MPO ELISA.
