Complementary Immunoassays

This work is a comprehensive, international review of new immunoassay technologies. Examines special aspects of the subject, such as the large-scale production of novel monoclonal antibodies, the influence of reference preparations and matrix effects, and aspects of solid-phase chemistry. Covers the development of practical tests for use in extra-laboratory locations, and the recent availability of ultrasensitive, semi-automatic, laboratory procedures. Coverage of the problems of terminology and classification, and a glossary of 144 specialized terms are included.
