Recent advances in homogeneous enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) are discussed. EIA methods have been developed with comparable sensitivity to those of radioirnrnunoassay (RIA). EIAs have become established in many clinical laboratories and are generally being employed for: 1) homogeneous assay of low mole

โฆ Synopsis
Homogeneous enzyme immunoassay has been used as a tool for the determination of diosgenin and its glycosides in plants. Diosgenin antisera was found to inhibit the activity of diosgenin hemisuccinate-horseradish peroxidase conjugate which was reversed by the addition of free diosgenin or its glycosides. The increase of enzyme activity was proportional to the quantity of the hapten over a certain range of hapten concentration. Thus, a minimum of 2.5 micrograms/ml of diosgenin and 11.5 micrograms/ml of diosgenin glycosides could be determined by this method. The results were comparable with those obtained by high-performance liquid chromatography and gravimetric methods.
