Spatially resolved ligand-receptor binding assays
Last updated:
Abstract:
A method for analyzing the results of a ligand-receptor binding assay comprising the steps of: (a) providing the results of a ligand-receptor binding assay; and (b) qualifying the results of a ligand-receptor binding assay. More particularly, the ligand-receptor binding assay involves the steps of combining appropriate reagents in which receptors attached to a solid support, a sample suspected of containing a ligand, and a conjugate comprising a label form a complex in which the label is present at a concentration that is directly proportional to the amount of ligand present in the sample. Alternatively, the ligand-receptor binding assay involves the steps of combining appropriate reagents to perform a ligand-receptor binding assay in which receptors attached to a solid support, a sample suspected of containing a ligand, and a conjugate comprising a label form a complex in which the label is present at a concentration that is inversely proportional to the amount of analyte present in the sample.
