A novel sensitive method for determining qualitatively and quantitatively the presence of a wide variety of physiologically active organic compounds (ligand) and their receptors is provided. The method employs a reagent which involves bonding a compound having structural similarity to the compound to be determined (ligand analog) to a fluorescing compound. The unknown compound is referred to as a ligand, the conjugate of the structurally similar compound and fluorescer is referred to as ligand analog-fluorescer, and compounds which recognize a specific structure and bind to such structure are referred to as receptors and are normally antibodies.
