Abstract

Use of immunoassays and other ligand-binding assays in clinical diagnosis has increased dramatically during the last several years. Despite impressive technical advances, "mass production" of these assays in a routine laboratory still presents many difficulties. This review of ligand-binding assay technology highlights some recent developments, emphasizing challenges and possible solutions for cost-effective patient care.
