Term information
hasDefinition
Body fluids are complex mixtures of substances which can disrupt immunoassays in a variety of ways: by interfering with the binding of the analyte to a primary antibody, either via a competing compound or in a nonspecific manner, by providing a competing binder such as steroid or thyroid binding proteins, by interfering with the reagents used to separate free and bound forms, and/or by interfering with the detection system (quenching radioactivity, fluorescence, or enzymatic activity).
