Improved double-antibody enzyme immunoassay for methotrexate.
We report an enzyme immunoassay procedure for methotrexate measurement that takes less than 3 h to perform. beta-D-Galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) from Escherichia coli was conjugated to methotrexate by means of the mixed anhydride reaction. Bound and free labeled drug were separated by a preincubated cubic complex of first and second antibody. The enzyme activity of the bound fraction was measured...
متن کاملHomogeneous enzyme immunoassay for thyroxine compared with a radioimmunoassay technique.
A homogeneous enzyme immunoassay (EMIT) for serum thyroxine determination has been evaluated. It was also compared to our routine method, a radioimmunoassay with use of a commercial kit, Tetra-Tab RIA. Within-day precision was very similar for the two methods, the CV ranging from about 2.5% at 150 nmol of thyroxine per liter to about 5.7% at 25 nmol/L. The two methods were compared by running 1...
متن کاملEnzyme immunoassay for oxytocin.
A competitive, double antibody enzyme immunoassay for oxytocin in a heterologous system was developed. Horseradish peroxidase was conjugated with oxytocin using N-succinimidyl 3-(2-pyridyldithio) propionate, and rabbit anti-oxytocin serum was produced by immunization of oxytocin-bovine serum albumin complex which was prepared by the carbodiimide method. The sensitivity of the assay was 4 microI...
متن کاملIrreversible enzyme-shuttle immunoassay.
The concept of a competitive enzyme immunoassay that utilizes simultaneously the bound and the free analyte-enzyme conjugate (heterobifunctional conjugate) for signal generation in response to varying analyte concentrations in samples has been investigated. Two antigenic sites of the heterobifunctional conjugate are used in the assay for binding to immunoglobulins: the analyte derivative binds ...
متن کاملElectrochemical enzyme-immunoassay
"Immunoassay" defines the body of techniques which use the antibody (Ab) macromolecule, usually of the IgG class, for the detection and quantitation of an enormous range of simple and complex antigen (Ag) molecules. The success of the methods relies on both the specificity and formation constant of the Ab used, and the ability to detect the interaction between Ab and Ag. Sensitive assays in com...
