Multivariate analysis to separate the signal given by cross-reactants in immunoassay with sample matrix dilution
This paper describes a new approach to achieve selectivity in an immunoassay by separating the signals given by two cross-reactive compounds present simultaneously in a complex sample matrix. The method is based on the sequential dilution of the sample containing a mixture of the two analytes, spiking each diluted sample with a reference compound, and the detection by enzyme-linked immunosorbent a
