title: Extension of the four-parameter logistic model for ELISA to multianalyte analysis.
abstract: The standard implementation of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for single analytes can lead to false conclusions if cross reacting compounds are present in the sample. This paper discusses the extension of the usual four-parameter logistic model for ELISA to the case of multiple cross-reacting analytes. The use of the extended model in multianalyte analysis (MELISA) is illustrated and compared with a more simplistic approach. Data on the analysis of a binary mixture of s-triazines suggests the superiority of the proposed model. This model is also suitable for other forms of immunoassay that use the four-parameter logistic curve.
