Enhanced luminescent or luminometric assay

A phenolic compound is used to enhance the sensitivity of a luminescent reaction such as carried out in an immunoassay between a peroxidase enzyme, an oxidant, and a chemiluminescent 2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione. Preferably, the phenolic compound is 4-iodophenol, 4-phenylphenol or 2-chloro-4-phe...

Zusammenfassung:A phenolic compound is used to enhance the sensitivity of a luminescent reaction such as carried out in an immunoassay between a peroxidase enzyme, an oxidant, and a chemiluminescent 2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione. Preferably, the phenolic compound is 4-iodophenol, 4-phenylphenol or 2-chloro-4-phenylphenol. In the preferred embodiment, horseradish peroxidase is coupled to an antibody to the substance to be assayed.
