LIPOSOME BASED HOMOGENEOUS, IMMUNOASSAY FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTS" ABSTRACT, The present invention provides for novel homogeneous immunoassay systems involving complementmediated lysis of marker-encapsulating lipid vesicles (liposomes) for detection of analyte in a fluid sample. These systems do not require the separation of unbound antigens and/or antibody conjugates yet provide highly sensitive procedures for analyte detection. Liposomes containing a marker are coupled to antibody, fragments in a way which confers the liposomes with immunological specificity yet avoids sensitizing the liposomes to complement mediated lysis in the absence of analyte. Antibody sensitized liposomes (the first …
