An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for urinary free cortisol.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Since the introduction of our plasma cortisol enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) [l] using affinity purified antiserum [2] into the routine steroid laboratory, we have embarked on the development of a simple urinary free or unconjugated cortisol ELISA which would allow measurement of both urine and plasma cortisol on the one ELISA plate. This paper describes for the first time an ELISA for urinary free cortisol.

Standardization of an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay for Detection of Infectious Bronchitis Virus Antibody.
An indirect enzyme–linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for screening of antibody to avian infectious bronchitis virus (IBV). Antigen was prepared from whole-purified IBV Massachusetts serotype (BR 801 strain). Optimum dilution with minimum background for antigen concentration, rabbit anti-chicken conjugate and sera in developed ELISA was determined 0.1μg/ml, 1:3000 and 1:100, respe...

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using a homologous combination of antiserum raised against testosterone-3-0-carboxymethyloxime-bovine serum albumin (T-3-0-CMO-BSA ) and penicillinase-labelled T-3-0-CMO was developed. This assay was utilized to measure testosterone in serum samples of male and female subjects. The sensitivity of the assay is 50pg/well and the antibody developed crossrea...
متن کاملAn enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for corticosteroid-binding globulin using monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies: decline in CBG following synthetic ACTH.
BACKGROUND Adrenal function is commonly assessed by measuring plasma cortisol following synthetic ACTH (synacthen) challenge. Generally little regard is given to plasma levels of corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG). We have developed and validated an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for CBG and together with plasma cortisol calculated the "free cortisol index" as an additional parame...

Indirect plate enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was standardized and evaluated for its effectivenessin immunodiagnosis of haemonchosis in experimental and clinical cases in sheep by using somatic wholeadult antigen of H. contortus. Plate ELISA was standardized using 5 μg/well antigen concentration with1:100 and 1:1000 of sera and conjugate dilution. Indirect plate ELISA was able to demonstrate...
متن کاملValidation of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay developed for measuring cortisol concentration in human saliva and serum for its applicability to analyze cortisol in pig saliva
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to validate a commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) developed for measuring free cortisol in human saliva and total cortisol concentration in diluted human serum, for its applicability in measuring cortisol concentration in pig saliva. Collection of saliva is less stressful than e.g. blood sampling, and is a non-invasive method...
