Radioimmunoassay for desmethylimipramine.
This paper describes the production of antibodies against demethyl-imipramine (DMI). By using antisera, a radioimmunoassay was developed capable of detecting 0.2 ng of DMI which is linear up to 25 ng. The assay has been applied for the measurement of DMI in rat plasma and brain. The assay might find application especially when only limited amounts of blood, plasma or tissue are available.
