ABSTRACT:
A method for detecting a minute quantity of an inorganic or organic target molecule by combining it with a composition of a detecting agent for the target molecule which carries, by direct or indirect means, a visualization polymer. The visualization polymer is composed of multiple units of a visualization monomer which are covalently linked together directly or indirectly covalently linked together by coupling agents which bond to chemical groups of the monomer. The monomer may be an enzyme, a tagged polypeptide, a tagged polyol, a tagged polyolefin or a tagged carbohydrate. The detecting agent may be an antibody, an enzyme, a lectin, strand of a DNA receptor protein, avidin, streptavidin and the like. The visualization polymer produces a high degree of amplification for the detection of the target molecule.
