| Abstract;A sensitive and specific double-antibody enzyme immunoassay(EIA) for adrenocorticotropic hormone-like immunoreactive substances(ACTH-ISs) was developed. In competitive reactions, the ACTH(1-24)-antibody was incubated with both ACTH(1-24) standard(or sample) and .BETA.-D-galactosidase labeled synthetic human ACTH(1-24)(delayed addition). The free and antibody-bound enzyme haptens were separated by using an anti-rabbit IgG coated immunoplate. The activity of the enzyme on the plate was fluorometrically determined. The present immunoassay allows for the detection of 2 to 600fmol/mL of ACTH(1-24). Using the proposed EIA, ACTH(1-24)-ISs in human plasma were thus determined. As a result, the levels of ACTH(1-24)-ISs in human plasma were found to be about 3.7fmol/mL. (author abst.) |
