pubmed:abstractText |
Of 1585 consecutive serum samples referred for thyroid function testing, 14 gave erroneously high values from a two-site immunoenzymometric assay for thyrotrophin. The addition of mouse or newborn calf serum to the assay failed to correct the interference. In serum samples from 11 patients who were available for follow up a higher concentration of mouse, but not of horse, sheep or rabbit serum reduced the interference. The interference was associated only with assay systems which employed horseradish peroxidase but not 125I as a label. Addition of mouse serum and anti-IgM to the assay reagents successfully removed the interference.
