[Modification of the immunoenzyme analysis of haptens as exemplified by testosterone determination].
The solid-phase enzyme immunoassay for testosterone (TS), permitting the determination of this hormone at concentrations of up to 0.5 ng/ml, has been developed. The method comprises the adsorption of TS conjugated with soya trypsin inhibitor in the wells of a standard polystyrene assay plate, competition between adsorbed TS and TS under test for the binding sites of specific antibodies, and the detection of antibodies bound to the carrier by means of peroxidase-labeled antispecific antibodies. Antisera to TS have been obtained by the immunization of rabbits with TS conjugated with bovine serum albumin of a known composition. These antisera are specific to TS and do not interact with estrogens and progesterone. The study of their cross reactions with eleven TS derivatives has demonstrated that antibodies reveal the presence of structural changes in ring D of the molecule of TS and are insensitive to variations in ring A. The determinant comprising the 17-OH-group essentially contributes to the binding of antibodies.
