چکیده

The performance of enzyme immunoassay (EIA) and radioimmunoassay (RIA) in the quantitative analysis of ecdysteroids was compared. The EIA was found to be at least equivalent to the RIA with respect to analytical range and sensitivity and to be more comfortable with respect to safety and time saving. When biological samples were analyzed by both assays a good correlation (r = 0.83) was found. Since the EIA has certain advantages over the RIA, we now recommend the use of the former assay for the quantification of ecdysteroids.

Quantification 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 ...

Comparison of Enzyme Immunoassay, Immunochromatography, and RNA-Polyacrylamide-Gel Electrophoresis for Diagnosis of Rotavirus Infection in Children with Acute Gastroenteritis

Human rotavirus is a major etiologic agent for infantile diarrhea worldwide. It is responsible for up to 3.3 million deaths per year in children in developing countries. Various rapid and sensitive techniques have been developed to readily diagnose rotavirus gastroenteritis. In the present study, we compared the sensitivity and specificity of immunochromatography and RNA-polyacrylamide-gel elec...

Comparison of radioimmunoassay and enzyme immunoassay methods in determining gentamicin pharmacokinetic parameters and dosages.

Radioimmunoassay and enzyme immunoassay methods for analysis of serum gentamicin levels have been shown to be comparable. The purpose of this study was to determine if serum concentration-time data from the same patient assayed by radioimmunoassay and enzyme immunoassay would provide the same estimates for half-life, elimination rate constant, distribution volume, drug clearance, and gentamicin...

Enzyme immunoassay for human ferritin.

We describe an enzyme immunoassay with use of beta-D-galactosidase for quantitation of ferritin in human serum. The minimum detectable ferritin concentration is 0.25 microgram/L of serum, which is comparable to results obtained by radioimmunoassay. The correlation coefficient between values determined by enzyme immunoassay and radioimmunoassay was 0.95 (n - 1 = 85, p less than 0.001).

Comparative determination of phenytoin by spectrophotometry, gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, enzyme immunoassay, and radioimmunoassay.

Sera from patients being treated with phenytoin were analyzed for the drug by spectrophotometry, gas chromatography, radioimmunoassay, enzyme immunoassay, and liquid chromatography. The essay values obtained were intercompared statistically. Enzyme immunoassay and liquid chromatography appear to be attractive alternatives to the more traditional methods of spectrophotometry and gas chromatograp...
