1. An assay method comprising:
a) seeding RBL 2H3 hFCεRIa cells in an assay plate with a MEM media to form a cell suspension, wherein the RBL 2H3 hFCεRIa cells comprise an hFCεRIa receptor with an IgE or an NP IgE and an anti-IgE antibody;
b) optionally incubating the cell suspension with CO2,
c) sensitising and neutralizing the RBL 2H3 cells;
d) transferring the sensitized and neutralized RBL 2H3 cells obtained from step (c) to a pre-seeded assay plate;
e) incubating the pre-seeded assay plate;
f) washing the pre-seeded assay plate;
g) mixing an antigen into the pre-seeded assay plate and incubating the pre-seeded assay plate to obtain a supernatant;
h) transferring the supernatant obtained from the incubation in step (g) from the pre-seeded assay plate into a test assay plate;
i) incorporating a substrate into the test assay plate and incubating the test assay plate; and
j) measuring bioactivity of the anti-IgE antibody.
