NON-AQUEOUS SOLVENT SPECIFIC BINDING PROTEIN ASSAYS

摘要

Novel specific protein binding assays are provided employing a solvent system comprising a solvent characterised as hydrophobic, essentially anhydrous and water immiscible. Particularly, lipophilic analytes are shown to be sensitively determined using antibodies in hydrocarbon media, optionally substantially saturated with aqueous buffer and/or comprising an anionic surfactant.
