ABSTRACT:
A specific binding assay method and test kit for determining a ligand, particularly an antigen or hapten, in, or the ligand binding capacity of, a liquid medium, particularly a body fluid such as serum, wherein the liquid medium is combined with assay reagent means including a labeled binding component, such as a radiolabeled form of the ligand, with the improvement that separation of the resulting bound-species and free-species of the labeled component is accomplished by selectively adsorbing the free-species onto a solid comprising a nonion-exchange cross-linked styrene polymer. The method is particularly suited to the radioimmunoassaydetection of nonproteinaceous haptens such as thyroxine, triiodothyronine, estriol, vitamin B.sub.12 and digoxin. The styrene polymer adsorbent provides a very effective and readily available separation means for use in specific binding assays.
