Abstract:
The present report describes a rapid, simple, and highly selective approach to perform testosterone competitive immunoassay by CE and LIF detection. The method involves using synthesized fluorescence-labeled testosterone as a tracer to compete with testosterone. Two polyclonal antibodies (antibody (Ab) arised from T-3-BSA (Ab(3)) and Ab arised from T-17-BSA (Ab(17))) and their respective tracers have been optimized and Ab(3) system is used for the quantification of testosterone by CE-based immunoassay. The method is developed with a wide working range of 3.70-2000 ng/mL and an LOD at 1.11 ng/mL. Tests for normal and positive urine samples show that this method has the potential to be applied in testosterone doping control.

Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay
There are many different types of ELISAs, but they all involve an antibody molecule whose constant region binds an enzyme, leaving the variable region free to bind its specific antigen. Enzyme-substrate reaction allows the antigen to be visualized or quantified.
