Enzyme-linked immunoassay for placental lactogen in human serum.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe an enzyme-linked immunoassay for measuring human placental lactogen (HPL) in serum. After suitable dilution, sera are pipetted into the wells of polyvinyl microtitre plates previously coated with anti-HPL. After incubation the sera are decanted, and replaced by a conjugate of horseradish peroxidase and anti-HPL. An amount of enzyme proportional to the concentration of HPL in the serum is bound to the wells via an antibody--HPL--antibody bridge. Peroxidase activity is measured by oxidation of o-phenylenediamine, the resulting color being related to the concentration of HPL. Results correlate well with those by radioimmunoassay (r = 0.96). Our between-assay coefficient of variation was 13%; no discernible effect of protein was observed. This 4-h assay can be used to monitor placental function in pregnancy.

Centrifugal analyzer used for enzyme immunoassay of progesterone and choriomammotropin.
Recently we developed an enzyme immunoassay involving the use of steroid delta-isomerase (EC 5.3.3.1) as enzyme label and exclusion-affinity chromatography for rapid separation of free antigen-enzyme conjugate that bound to antibodies (J. Immunol. Methods 35: 267-284, 1980). Here we describe an automated version of this procedure, for immunoassay of progesterone and choriomammotropin (human pla...

We have devloped an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for determining choriomammotropin (human placental lactogen) in serum. Unlabeled hormone competes with choriomammotropin-beta-galactosidase conjugate for antibody bound to polystyrene tubes. The entire assay can be performed in 2.5 h with good precision. The coefficient of variation for one sample with a mean concentration of 5.6 mg/L, assay...
متن کاملQuantification of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin by Bovine Serum Albumin Nanoparticles
Background and Aims: Some nanoparticles can be used in immunoassays to increase sensitivity. This study aimed to evaluate a novel nano-immunoassay based on bovine serum albumin nanoparticles (BSA NPs). Materials and methods: At first, the nanostructure was synthesized, and then applied as a tag in the nano-immunoassay. Then the concentration of β-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin ...
متن کاملA new enzyme immunoassay for prolactin in serum or plasma.
This enzyme immunoassay (EIA) of human prolactin (hPRL) involves incubation of sample and anti-hPRL antibodies conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.7) in tubes coated with a second antibody to hPRL. The test can be performed within 60 min. No reaction of the antibodies with human placental lactogen and human somatotropin is detectable. The presence of detergent allows assay of both s...
