<p>A method for detecting a substance in a sample which comprises steps of: (a) mixing a first enzyme complex comprising a first enzyme bound to a material having the affinity for the substance to be detected with the sample, (b) separating the first enzyme complex bound to the substance to be detected (the first enzyme complex in bound form) from the first enzyme complex not bound to the substance to be detected (the first enzyme complex in free form), (c) reacting the first enzyme complex in bound form with (i) a first substrate comprising a substrate for said first enzyme which is bound to a second enzyme; or (ii) a first substrate comprising a substrate to said first enzyme which is not bound to a second enzyme, (d) removing the unreacted first substrate from the first product formed in step (i); or reacting the first product formed in step (ii) with a second enzyme complex comprising a second enzyme bound to a material having the affinity for said first product, and then removing the unreacted second enzyme complex, (e) reacting the system with a second substrate to the second enzyme to form a second product, and (f) detecting the second product produced in step (e). n</p> |
