ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a flotation immunoassay employing a novel buoyant matrix to which an antigen or antibody is coupled and which separates the bound and free products of the assay by floating to the surface of the reaction liquid. The novel flotation device which makes it possible to detect and to quantitate either antigen or antibody can also be used to fractionate cells and molecules.
