摘要 |
A method for the determination of a target analyte in a sample, said method comprising: a) applying a liquid sample suspected of containing said target analyte to a solid support capable of allowing lateral flow of liquid there through, which support has diffusibly arranged thereon, (i) either (a) a labeled binding partner for said analyte or (b) a labeled analogue of said analyte, and (ii) a labeled control reagent; b) allowing the sample, labeled binding partner for said analyte or a labeled analogue of said analyte and labeled control reagent to flow through a detection zone on said solid support; c) allowing the sample, labeled binding partner for said analyte or a labeled analogue of said analyte and labeled control reagent to flow through a control zone; and d) detecting the labeled density in the detection zone and the label density in the control zone and comparing these densities. |
