Preferred term

Fluorescence Polarization Immunoassay  

Type

  • Topical Descriptor

Entry terms

  • Fluorescence Polarization Immunoassays
  • Fluoroimmunoassay, Polarization
  • Fluoroimmunoassays, Polarization
  • Immunoassay, Fluorescence Polarization
  • Immunoassays, Fluorescence Polarization
  • Polarization Fluoroimmunoassay
  • Polarization Fluoroimmunoassays
  • Polarization Immunoassay, Fluorescence
  • Polarization Immunoassays, Fluorescence

Note

  • usually NIM; application of fluorescence polarization to hapten-antibody reaction: do not confuse with FLUORESCENCE POLARIZATION, determmination of polarization of fluorescent light

Scope note

  • Fluoroimmunoassay where detection of the hapten-antibody reaction is based on measurement of the increased polarization of fluorescence-labeled hapten when it is combined with antibody. The assay is very useful for the measurement of small haptenic antigens such as drugs at low concentrations.

History note

  • 91; POLARIZATION FLUOROIMMUNOASSAY was see FLUOROIMMUNOASSAY 1989-91
