title: [Use of monoclonal antibodies for the immunoenzymological determination of alpha-fetoprotein in amniotic fluid].
abstract: A two site immunoenzymatic assay using monoclonal antibodies for alpha-fetoprotein in amniotic fluid has been evaluated. Results obtained with monoclonal antibodies correlated well with those obtained by electroimmunodiffusion assay. The evaluation of this method has shown rapidity, accuracy and a better sensitivity than electroimmunodiffusion assay. Further more the measurements of both maternal serum and amniotic fluid alpha-fetoprotein can be associated.
