Receptor steric hindrance immunoassay for receptor determination

摘要

A method is provided for the determination of receptors, particularly antibodies, where a polyepitopic reagent is employed, at least one of the epitopes being specific for the receptor of interest. The epitopic sites are situated on the reagent, so that the binding of the receptor of interest to the reagent will sterically hinder binding of receptors other than the receptor of interest.
