Check your baby frequently and remove the bag after the infant has urinated into it. The urine is drained into a container for transport back to the health care provider. Immunoelectrophoresis is a laboratory technique. Electrical charges are used to separate and identify the various immunoglobulins. It uses a combination of protein electrophoresis and an antigen-antibody interaction.
Protein electrophoresis indicates the presence of immunoglobulins as a group.
Immunoelectrophoresis enhances the ability to identify the specific immunoglobulins through the use of antibodies that only react with the proteins of interest. The presence of a precipitin band indicates that the antigen is present for the monospecific antiserum used. How to prepare for the test Collection of the first morning urine, which is the most concentrated, may be recommended. If the collection is being taken from an infant, a couple of extra collection bags may be necessary. How the test will feel The test involves only normal urination, and there is no discomfort.
