SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Immunoassays are among the most powerful and sensitive technologies now available for patient diagnosis and monitoring. This work is a guide to information on the theory and practice of immunoassays. It discusses the scientific basis of these technologies and provides protocols for specific assays.
