N2  - The sera of 30 patients with premature ovarian failure (POF) and a control group of 19 menopausal women were screened for anti-ovarian and other tissue antibodies. Anti-ovarian antibodies were detected by indirect immunofluorescence using monkey ovary substrates from two different commercial sources. Serum anti-ovarian antibodies were detected in only one of the patients with POF. This test does not appear to be reliable for the detection of serum anti-ovarian antibodies, and the clinical usefulness of screening patients with POF for anti-ovarian antibodies is questionable.
