title: Immunochemically based assays for process control.
abstract: Immunoanalysis for process control is reviewed. The development of non-equilibrium immunoassays from a manually operated flow injection system to a completely computerized system for sample analysis as well as calibration and data evaluation is discussed. Several other approaches in using immunochemistry in biosensors for process control are discussed. The fact that reuse of antibodies raises specific demands on their properties is discussed. Even if the area is young, much progress has been achieved and one can foresee an interesting future development of the area.
