Abstract

Abstract Antibodies to lipophilic haptens and antigens, such as the antibodies of bile acids are non-covalently coated on a solid substrate for use in solid phase immunoassays by including in the antibody coating solution an inorganic salt, such as ammonium sulfate, to increase the ionic strength of the solution.
