The development of antisera to prostaglandins B2 and F2alpha and their analysis using solid-phase and double antibody...

1 A method for the production of highly substituted prostaglandin-bovine serum albumin conjugates has been developed. 2 Antisera to prostaglandins B2 and F2alpha were raised in rabbits immunized with prostaglandin-bovine serum albumin conjugates. 3 The antisera were assessed for specificity and sensitivity by the double antibody radioimmunoassay method and after they were covalently linked to powdered cellulose to form a 'solid-phase' system. 4 Solid phase radioimmunoassays were developed using conventional shaking and in the presence of sucrose which obviates the need for continuous mixing of the incubates.
