ABSTRACT:
Reagents are disclosed for use in assays for analytes. The reagents are dry assay reagents that may be readily reconstituted for use in the assays. The dry assay reagents comprise a solid support and one or more molecules of a receptor immobilized on the solid support. The receptor comprises one or more binding sites for a ligand. A portion of a total number of the binding sites is bound to a conjugate comprising the ligand linked to a specific binding pair member and a portion of the total number of the binding sites is free. In use in an assay, a combination is provided in an aqueous medium comprising the sample and reagents for detecting the analyte wherein at least one of the reagents comprises the dry assay reagent mentioned above. The combination is incubated under conditions for binding of the analyte to one or more of the reagents. The presence and/or amount of binding of the analyte to one or more of the reagents is detected where the presence and/or amount of the binding is related to the presence and/or amount of the analyte in the sample.
