  • Title: Flow injection electrochemical enzyme immunoassay for theophylline using a protein A immunoreactor and p-aminophenyl phosphate-p-aminophenol as the detection system.
    Author: Palmer DA, Edmonds TE, Seare NJ.
    Journal: Analyst; 1992 Nov; 117(11):1679-82. PubMed ID: 1481995.
    Abstract:
    A competitive electrochemical enzyme immunoassay has been developed for the antiasthmatic drug theophylline, utilizing a controlled-pore glass-protein A immunoreactor and flow injection techniques. p-Aminophenyl phosphate, a substrate for alkaline phosphatase, has been used in this assay, and its hydrolysis product p-aminophenol was determined at +0.2 V versus the saturated calomel electrode. For each sample the antibody-protein A reaction takes place at near-neutral pH, and the complexes are eluted at acid pH. Serum theophylline has been determined by this method, and good relative standard deviations and percentage recoveries have been achieved.
