ABSTRACT:
A heterogeneous, competitive binding immunoassay is conducted with a dry analytical element. The immunoassay is useful for determining a ligand (e.g. a therapeutic drug) and includes contacting a finite area of the element spreading layer with a sample of a liquid in the presence of a labeled ligand analog and an immobilized receptor. An immobilized ligand-receptor complex is formed within the finite area. Simultaneously, the uncomplexed ligand migrates horizontally away from the immobilized complex which remains in the center of the finite area. At least five seconds after the completion of the contacting, the amount of immobilized complex is measured in the center of the finite area.
