Describes the basic prerequisities for a fluorometric immunoassay: the antibody, the immunological technology, the fluorescent probe, and the instrument. Provides a profile of the clinical applications of the various assay technologies. Topics include: background noise, the mechanization and automation of immunoassays, DNA-based specific binding assays, fluorescence immonosensors, multiparameter analyzing systems and more.
