Policy on characterization of antibodies used in immunochemical methods of analysis for mycotoxins and phycotoxins.
The purpose of this document is to provide a policy on antibody characterization for conducting AOAC collaborative studies for immunochemical methods submitted for AOAC Official Methods Program status. The policy defines recommended information and characteristics to be provided by the Study Director, in the protocol of the collaborative study, for approval by AOAC. The document specifies parameters for characterization of antibodies used as biological reagent in the protocol of validation of immunochemical methods for the determination of mycotoxins and phycotoxins. These recommendations are applicable to the validation of any method, whether proprietary or nonproprietary, that is submitted to AOAC for Official Methods of Analysis status recognition.
