A brief review of the various immunoassays is presented before the basic mechanism of the enzyme multiplied immunoassay technique (EMIT) is described. This is followed by a presentation of the specific advantages and disadvantages of this method, as well as its correlation with other methods as applied to qualitative and quantitative determinations of each type of drug for which EMIT technology is available.
An analytical toxicology service, which primarily tests specimens for drugs of abuse but also determines blood levels of therapeutic drugs, is described. Analytical methods discussed are the enzyme multiplied immunoassay technique, hemagglutination-inhibition, the free radical assay technique, radioimmunoassay, thin-layer and gas liquid chromatography, and spectrophotometric analysis. A typical scheme for drug analysis is presented.
