Background and Identification
Immunoassays are a type of biochemical test that is used to detect the presence and concentration of specific molecules in a sample. The test is highly accurate and can be performed quickly in a clinical or laboratory setting. Immunoassays rely on blood-derived antibodies or antigens binding to target molecules.
There are multiple types of immunoassays for an array of applications, including the detection of tumor markers, allergens, infectious diseases, and other toxins.
