The method for determination of anti-thyroid antibodies in extracts of dried whole blood on filter paper was described. Antibodies in dried blood were stable at room temperature for at least 1 month and were extracted well by overnight elution. This simple method requires only a minimal 30 microliter of venous blood and would enable large-scale screening for autoimmune thyroid diseases.
