[Immunoassays. Performance efficient methods of analysis for environmental toxicologic research and practice]
Abstract:
A review is presented which summarizes the development and application of immunoassays for pesticides and other environmental pollutants. Especially, in the last ten years an increased activity in that field can be noted. With the production of monoclonal antibodies an essential prerequisite is realized for standardization and commercialization of that methods. Potential application fields are routine measurements of environmental probes, biomonitoring in occupational hygiene and in epidemiological studies, determination of compounds difficult to analyze by classical analytical methods, application in chemical damages, control of hazardous waste deposits as well as for quality control of biotechnological products. Related research should be forced also in the GDR.

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.
