IMMUNOASSAY FOR THE DETECTION AND MEASUREMENT OF 2,2-DIBROMO-3-NITRILOPROPIONAMIDE

摘要

The subject invention provides a method of measuring very low levels of DBNPA. Novel DBNPA analogs are linked to a carrier protein and injected into an animal to provoke an immune response. The immune response is utilized to provide a hybridoma cell line which produces monoclonal antibodies which react with DBNPA. The antibodies are employed in a competition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect and measure DBNPA.
