Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A method of immunoassay for the estimation of inhibin in an inhibin-containing sample which comprises the step of using an antibody directed against inhibin. Preferably the antibody is contained in an antiserum raised by injecting an animal with an antigen selected from the group consisting of naturally-occurring or recombinant inhibin or sub-units, fragments or derivatives thereof. The assay may suitably be a radioimmunoassay, a fluorescence-based immunoassay, or an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using labelled 58kD or 31kD inhibin as tracer. Tracers and standards for use in the assay are described and claimed.
