title: Production of antibodies to amanitins as the basis for their radioimmunoassay.
abstract: The production of antibodies against amanitins is described. By means of these antibodies, a radioimmunoassay was developed which allows detection of as little as 0.5 ng of amanitins in 1 ml of serum. By this method, the clearance of alpha-amanitin from the blood of poisoned mice was measured.
