Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to compositions and methods use in designing immunoassay controls. In various aspects, the invention provides synthetic peptides comprising the sequence CPRRPYIL (SEQ ID NO: 1) or an analog thereof; ELAGLGFAELQC (SEQ ID NO: 4) or an analog thereof; and CDWRKNIDAL (SEQ ID NO: 8) or an analog thereof; specific binding reagents that bind to a CPRRPYIL (SEQ ID NO: 1), ELAGLGFAELQC (SEQ ID NO: 4) or CDWRKNIDAL (SEQ ID NO: 8) peptide; methods of producing such reagents; and assays utilizing such reagents to provide assay controls signals that are unrelated to the measurement of the analyte or analytes of interest in that no reagents used in the analyte assay(s) contribute to the control signal.
