To advance diagnosis and treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), the authors have developed a number of specific diagnostic preparations basing on nDNA, RNA, cardiolipin immobilized into the three-dimensional lattice of polyacrylamide gel. Using such granulated antigenic preparations with magnetic properties, a correlation has been derived between SLE activity, visceral pathology and a level of specific antibodies. In view of a successful experimental use of the preparations as selective sorbents, they may be introduced into extracorporeal treatment. Immobilized granulated preparations can be used in immunofluorescent tests and enzyme immunoassays.
