Synthetic arginine-vasopressin (AVP), oxytocin (OXY) and arginine-vasotocin (AVT) were labelled with radioiodine at a moderate specific activity. The purity of the labelled octapeptides was checked by descendent paper chromatography in butanol-acetic acid-water (4 : 1 : 5 v/v) after a double filtration on a Sephadex G-25 column of the labelling mixtures. The rabbit anti-AVP serum bound 125I--AVP, the highest binding belling observed on the descendent eluates from the Sephadex column. The antiserum is specific to AVP, no binding being observed will AVT or oxytocin. The sensitivity of a RIA system using 125I--AVP, commercial anti-AVP serum and polyethyleneglycol separation technique, was of 5 pg/ml in terms of AVP with a biological activity of 385 IU/mg. The validity of the assay was tested on five patients (two with diabetes inspidus (DI) and three with other endocrine diseases) submitted to dehydration of hydration tests.
