Abstract:To avoid false-positive results in immunoassays due to cross-reactivity of antibodies with structural analogues, especially metabolites of target compounds, the preparation of highly specific antibodies is crucial. Preserving the characteristic structure of a target compound when designing a hapten is important when preparing highly specific antibodies. Here, we designed a novel hapten, 4-(((1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-4yl)amino)methyl)benzoic acid, named AA-BA, to improve the specificit… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
