Evaluation of a serum/plasma separator: suitability of samples for radioimmunoassay and competitive protein binding techniques. 1976

K J Garbien, and J W Tuttlebee, and M F Crowley

A new method of separating serum or plasma from whole blood (Sure-Sep, W.R. Warner) has been evaluated with particular regard to the suitability of the serum/plasma samples for radioimmunoassay (R.I.A.) and competitive protein binding (C.P.B.) techniques. Sure-Sep did not affect the results obtained for the following assays: cortisol, thyroxine, triidothyronine, insulin, and growth hormone. In addition it was also found that contact of the serum or plasma samples with Sure-Sep for 24 hours at 4 degrees C was without effect on the results obtained.

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. Radioimmunoassays
D011869 Radioligand Assay Quantitative determination of receptor (binding) proteins in body fluids or tissue using radioactively labeled binding reagents (e.g., antibodies, intracellular receptors, plasma binders).
