RADIOIMMUNOASSAY OF STEROIDS
Abstract
A number of radioimmunoassay systems have been developed for quantitation of a variety of steroid hormones. Suitable antisera were obtained by immunizing rabbits with steroid derivatives conjugated at various positions to bovine serum albumin. The specificity of the antisera varied directly with the position of conjugation. Changes in the latter resulted in greater than 2000-fold shifts in relative inhibitory activity for a given steroid. The data indicate that conjugation should be done through a region (such as position 6) that is remote from distinguishing functional groups. The specificity data and nature of the inhibition curves suggest that the major portion of the steroid molecule is being recognized as a single immunoreactive unit. The advantages and problems associated with use of radioiodinated conjugates for labeled steroids are discussed. With conjugates, it has been possible to quantitate reliably as little as one pg of some steroids in a single assay tube.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
