title: Enzyme immunometric assay for the determination of pregnancy associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) with the antigen as solid phase (conjoint IEMA).
abstract: Purified pregnancy associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) can be effectively bound to polystyrene microtitre plates. This immobilized antigen competes with the added serum PAPP-A of unknown concentration for the limited amount of peroxidase-labeled monospecific anti-PAPP-A antibody incubated simultaneously. The sensitivity is 0.1 WHO unit/ml and non-specific binding is 1.0%.
