  • Immunoassay for 2-oxo-3-hydroxy LSD
    Patent number: 6548645
    Abstract: To improve the detection of LSD, and LSD metabolites in biological samples, antibodies are raised to 2-oxo-3-hydroxy-LSD conjugated to a protein carrier. Selected antibodies are matched with an immunoassay reagent in which the 2-oxo-3-hydroxy-LSD is conjugated in the same position to a labeling or separation means. The set of reagents can be used in immunoassays for detecting or confirming the presence of LSD or LSD metabolites in a sample potentially containing interfering substances.
