Zusammenfassung:Cyclosporine derivatives useful as detectable tracer compounds for the immunoassay determination of cyclosporine are disclosed. The cyclosporine derivatives comprise a detectable moiety coupled to the amino acid at the first position (MeBmt) in cyclosporine, the second position (Abu) in cyclosporine, the third position (Sar) in cyclosporine, the eighth position (D-Ala) in cyclosporine, or the tenth position (MeLeu) in cyclosporine. A preferred cyclosporine derivative comprises a fluorescent moiety coupled to the hydroxyl group of the amino acid at the first position in cyclosporine, and is especially useful for the fluorescent polarization immunoassay deterimination of cyclosporine. A fluorescent polarization immunoassay method and test kit are also disclosed.
