We describe here two latex immunoassays for total thyroxine (T4) and total triiodothyronine (T3). These homogeneous 60 min assays are quantified by optically counting the monomeric particles remaining after agglutination. When precision is assessed, both methods display coefficients of variation of 3-7% for within-run assays and 4-10% for between-run assays. The accuracy of the methods, as tested by dilution and spike recovery experiments, was found to be satisfactory. Two correlation studies were carried out to compare the present method with leading commercial methods. The coefficients obtained were: r = 0.92 and r = 0.93 with 150 sera for T3, and r = 0.95 (150 sera) and r = 0.93 (108 sera) for T4.

D013974 Thyroxine The major hormone derived from the thyroid gland. Thyroxine is synthesized via the iodination of tyrosines (MONOIODOTYROSINE) and the coupling of iodotyrosines (DIIODOTYROSINE) in the THYROGLOBULIN. Thyroxine is released from thyroglobulin by proteolysis and secreted into the blood. Thyroxine is peripherally deiodinated to form TRIIODOTHYRONINE which exerts a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on cell metabolism.

D014284 Triiodothyronine A T3 thyroid hormone normally synthesized and secreted by the thyroid gland in much smaller quantities than thyroxine (T4). Most T3 is derived from peripheral monodeiodination of T4 at the 5' position of the outer ring of the iodothyronine nucleus. The hormone finally delivered and used by the tissues is mainly T3.
