No wash immunoassay
A device for the assay has a base member bearing a test zone and at least one immobilized immunological component disposed in said zone in indicia-forming configuration. The component is operable to bind enzyme-labeled antibody through a target analyte to form a sandwich complex on said zone which c...

Summary: | A device for the assay has a base member bearing a test zone and at least one immobilized immunological component disposed in said zone in indicia-forming configuration. The component is operable to bind enzyme-labeled antibody through a target analyte to form a sandwich complex on said zone which complex produces upon contact with a substrate for said enzyme a visually discernible difference between said configuration and said test zone. Immobilized component is e.g. an antibody, antigen or hapten. Enzyme can be horseradish peroxidase, urease, glucose oxidise or a dehydrogenase. Base members may be of glass or plastic. Target analyte may be an antibody, antigen or hapten. Indicia configuration is e.g. a bar, dot, number, letter or plus sign. |
