Mp. Marco et al., IMMUNOCHEMICAL TECHNIQUES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL-ANALYSIS .1. IMMUNOSENSORS, TrAC. Trends in analytical chemistry, 14(7), 1995, pp. 341-350
Immunoassays are analytical techniques based on the avidity and specif
icity of the antigen-antibody reaction. However, new immunochemical te
chniques have emerged recently as a consequence of the incorporation o
f scientific advances and knowledge from other areas such as molecular
biology, microelectronics and chemistry. The principles of these tech
niques and their application to environmental analysis are presented.
