A kit for inactivating interfering binding proteins in a immunoassay for a member of a specific binding pair (sbp). The method comprises including in an assay medium containing a sample suspected of containing an sbp member and an interfering binding protein an effective amount of a water soluble compound having two substituted or unsubstituted phenyl groups linked to a common atom. When the sbp member or its sbp partner has two phenyl groups linked to a common atom, the compound has a number of-groups other than hydrogen attached to the phenyl groups and the atom that differs by at least two from the number of such groups on the sbp member. When the sbp member or its sbp partner has two phenyl groups linked to a common atom and the binding protein is not an antibody, the compound has only one group other than hydrogen attached to a phenyl group or the common atom. The methods have particular application in avoiding-cross-reactivity of non-analyte materials in a sample with immunachemical reagents used in such assay. The methods-have application also in disrupting complexer between an analyte to be determined and other materials to that one can accurately determine the amount of an analyte in a sample.

摘要:
Compounds and methods are disclosed for reversibly aggregating particles suspended in a liquid medium. The method comprises combining the liquid medium containing the particles with a polyionic polymer capable of aggregating the particles under conditions suitable for such aggregation. Thereafter, the particles are contacted with a chemical reagent capable of cleaving the polyionic polymer under conditions sufficient to reverse the aggregation. Optionally, magnetic particles are added to the liquid medium in the present method under conditions for non-specific binding and the medium including the aggregates is subjected to a magnetic field gradient to separate the aggregates from the medium. The compounds of the present invention are polyions. The aggregation of the particles is reversible upon contact with chemical agents which cleave at least some of the bonds within the polyionic polymer.

2-methyl-4-hexene- and 3-methyl-5-heptene-1,2-diol derivatives are disclosed together with methods for preparing such derivatives. Where the derivative is a 2-methyl-4-hexene- or 3-methyl-5-heptene-1,2-diol conjugated to a label, the conjugates are useful in immunoassays. Where the 2-methyl-4-hexene or 3-methyl-5-heptene-1,2-diol is conjugated to an immunogenic carrier, the conjugates may be employed as an immunogen for use in the preparation of antibodies. The label conjugate and the antibodies can be utilized in an immunoassay for the determination or detection of cyclosporin in a sample suspected of containing cyclosporin.
