    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for the detection of an analyte in a specimen comprising two steps. First, the specimen is contacted with a substrate having receptors bound thereon, having higher affinity for cross-reactive substances than for the analyte, in order to increase the ratio of the analyte to the cross-reactive substances. Then, the treated specimen is assayed by using another receptor while decreasing the effects of the cross-reactive substance contained in the original specimen. The receptors in the first step are preferably molecular imprinted polymers that are capable of absorbing multiple cross-reactive substances.

    Abstract: The present invention provides assays and methods of compensating for changes in the dose-response curve of an assay where such changes are due to variations in a perturbing variable such as, but not limited to temperature. This is achieved by a two-step method, the first step of which involves measurements of the dose-response curve, and thus the individual assay parameters, at many different values of the perturbing variable, spanning the expected range of the perturbing variable. In the second step, unknown samples are assayed simultaneously with a known standard at a chosen analyte concentration. During this measurement, the value of the perturbing variable is unknown and the dose-response curve is therefore also unknown. The different dose-response curves from the first step are used to determine a mathematical relationship between the assay parameters and the assay signal of the known standard. With this relationship, in which the value of the perturbing variable is implicit rather than explicit, assay parameters that are valid for the unknown value of the perturbing variable can be obtained by substituting the value of the assay signal from the known standard (measured when assaying the unknown samples) into the mathematical relationship and solving for the assay parameters. The method enables an accurate determination of the analyte concentration even when the perturbing variable is changing or fluctuating from one sample measurement to another. Once the first step is completed, the second step can be performed repeatedly to measure unknown samples with accuracy.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a method of performing a competitive assay for the detection and quantification of an analyte over an extended dynamic range. This is achieved by a multi-step sample addition method whereby different concentrations of sample are added at different times during the assay that produces a dose-response curve with multiple windows of detection. This multi-step sample addition method causes the dose-response curve of the composite assay to broaden, dramatically increasing the assay dynamic range.
