Description |
The effect of dimer heterology in the sandwich immunoassay of testosterone was studied using symmetrical and asymmetrical dimers prepared from testosterone-3-(O-carboxymethyl)oxime and 4- (carboxymethyl-mercapto)testosterone. The effect of antibody heterology was studied using antibodies against 3-carboxymethyl oxime and 17-hemisuccinate derivatives of the steroid and an asymmetrical dimer prepared from the same two derivatives. Using antibody against the 3-carboxymethyl oxime and the dimer of 4-(carboxymethylmercapto)testosterone, the sensitivity of direct enzyme immunoassay of testosterone in serum by this method was 0.5 pg/well and the cross-reactivity of 5a-dihydrotestosterone was 5%. |
