Abstract: The present disclosure includes compounds, kits, and assay procedures for use in determining the levels of certain types of drugs in samples that contain specific binding proteins for the drugs. The present disclosure includes analog compounds useful for displacing the drugs from their endogenous binding proteins, and kits including same, as well as methods that utilize these displacers as binding competitors in pharmaceutical assays.

Abstract: Methods are disclosed for a sandwich assay for a small molecule having a molecular weight of about 500 to about 2,500. The method comprises the use of a first antibody that binds to the small molecule and a second antibody that binds to the small molecule at a portion of the small molecule other than a portion to which the first antibody binds. The second antibody is prepared from an immunogen that comprises a hapten that is not the small molecule or a derivative of the small molecule wherein the hapten comprises a moiety that is structurally similar to that of the second portion of the small molecule. The antibodies may be employed in sandwich assays for the small molecule.

Abstract: Reagents, kits, and microfluidics devices are disclosed for detecting the presence and/or concentration of antibodies directed to microorganisms in human biological samples. Also disclosed are methods of production and use of the reagents, kits, and microfluidics devices. Anti-human immunoglobulin antibodies are utilized to enhance the signal produced by the assay.

Abstract: Methods of mitigating lipoprotein interference in in vitro diagnostic assays for target hydrophobic analytes are disclosed, as well as compositions, kits, and devices useful in said methods. A pretreatment reagent is utilized that includes at least one enzyme that digests lipoprotein.

Abstract: Reagents for use in sandwich immunoassays for haptens are disclosed, along with kits containing same. Also disclosed are diagnostic immunoassay methods that utilize these immunoassay reagents in a particle enhanced agglutination detection assay for detecting haptens/drugs in samples.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and compositions to remove or reduce biotin interference from certain assays.
