LATERAL FLOW ASSAY AND DEVICE USING MAGNETIC PARTICLES

摘要

A complex including magnetic particle bound to a metal colloid. The complex may be part of a reagent for use in a method for determining analytes. The reagent may include a binding partner specific for an analyte. The reagent may further include a first label that is distinguishable from a second label that is used to detect the analyte. The reagent is used in kits and methods for detecting analytes in samples. The methods include immunoassay methods, including method where the first label is used to calibrate the assay.
