react with suitable substrates to produce breakdown products that are either chromogenic, fluorogenic, or luminescent and developed as alternatives to RIAs

A

Enzyme Immunoassay

20
Q

Commonly used enzyme labels

A
  • Horseradish peroxidase
  • Alkaline phosphatase
  • B-D-galactosidase
21
Q

Uses fluorochromes or fluorophores

A

Fluorescent labels

22
Q

A

Fluorescein and Rhodamine

23
Q

use labels that emit light as the result of electrical or chemical (oxidation) reaction?

A

Chemiluminescence

24
Q

Types of luminescent labels?

A
  • Luminol
  • Acridinium esters
  • Ruthenium derivatives
  • Nitrophenyl oxalates
25
Q

uses electrochemical compounds that generate light when redox reaction occurs?

A

26
Q

Labeled antigen competes with unlabeled antigen for a limited number of antibody-binding sites

A

Competitive Immunoassay

27
Q

Competitive Immunoassay (inversely or directly proportional) to unlabeled antigen concentration

A

inversely proportional

28
Q

Unknown antigen is bound by passive adsorption to the solid phase and Label activity is directly proportional with antigen concentration

A

Direct Noncompetitive Immunoassay

29
Q

Initial antigen adsorption and washing and Label activity is directly proportional with antigen concentration

A

Indirect Noncompetitive Immunoassay

30
Q

Uses known unlabeled antibody to bind the immobilized unknown antigen

A

Indirect Noncompetitive Immunoassay

31
Q

Incubated with the labeled antibody

A

Direct Noncompetitive Immunoassay

32
Q

Similar with direct immunoassay but antibody, rather than antigen is passively adsorbed on the solid phase

A

Capture/Sandwich Immunoassay

33
Q

Requires compatible known antibody pair (unlabeled and labeled) that binds different epitopes on the unknown antigen

A

Capture/Sandwich Immunoassay

34
Q

uses conjugated antibody that binds with the immobilized antigen-antibody complex on the plate well

A

Direct Capture/Sandwich Immunoassay

35
Q

uses either an unconjugated antibody or biotinylated antibody that binds to the immobilized antigen-antibody complex and subsequently detected by a secondary labeled antibody

A

Indirect Capture/Sandwich Immunoassay

36
Q

Originally designed for POCT or home-based testing

A

Rapid Immunoassays

37
Q

Designed as a single use, disposable assays in a plastic cartridge

A

Rapid Immunoassays

38
