Radioimmunoassay of 3,3',5'-triiodothyronine (reverse T3) on small reusable sephadex columns. 1978

J Faber, and T Friis, and C Kirkegaard, and K Siersbaek-Nielsen

A simple radioimmunoassay for serum reverse triiodothyronine on small reusable Sephadex G 25 fine columns has been developed. The assay was unaffected by serum volumes of up to 100 microliter. The recovery of reverse T3 added to serum was in the mean 98.3 +/- SEM 3.2% and the coefficient of variation within and between assay determinations 5.4% and 7.5%, respectively. The detection limit was 2.2 pg reverse T3/column. Serum reverse T3 in 58 euthyroid controls was in mean 48 +/- SD 9 ng/100 ml, and was positively correlated to age (P less than 0.001). No overlap was found between the control group, and the hypo- and hyperthyroid group respectively. Three patients with T3-toxicosis had a normal serum rT3.

D011485 Protein Binding The process in which substances, either endogenous or exogenous, bind to proteins, peptides, enzymes, protein precursors, or allied compounds. Specific protein-binding measures are often used as assays in diagnostic assessments. Plasma Protein Binding Capacity,Binding, Protein
D011863 Radioimmunoassay Classic quantitative assay for detection of antigen-antibody reactions using a radioactively labeled substance (radioligand) either directly or indirectly to measure the binding of the unlabeled substance to a specific antibody or other receptor system. Non-immunogenic substances (e.g., haptens) can be measured if coupled to larger carrier proteins (e.g., bovine gamma-globulin or human serum albumin) capable of inducing antibody formation.
