Summary:Immunoassay reagents, methods and test kits for the specific quantification of vancomycin in a test sample are disclosed. The reagent comprises antibodies prepared with immunogens of FIG. 6 wherein P is an immunogenic carrier material and X is a linking moiety. Also described is the synthesis of labeled reagents of FIG. 8 wherein Q is a detectable moiety, preferably fluorescein or a fluorescein derivative, and X is a linking moiety.
