    Area of Science:

    • Biochemistry
    • Analytical Chemistry
    • Immunology

    Background:

    • Gentamicin is a crucial antibiotic for treating bacterial infections.
    • Accurate monitoring of gentamicin levels is essential to ensure therapeutic efficacy and minimize toxicity.
    • Existing gentamicin assays may require complex equipment or extensive training.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a novel enzyme immunoassay for quantifying gentamicin.
    • To evaluate the accuracy and specificity of the developed gentamicin assay.
    • To demonstrate the utility of the assay with simple laboratory equipment.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) specifically designed for gentamicin detection.
    • Validation of the EIA using standard laboratory procedures to assess accuracy and specificity.
