IMMUNOASSAY AND KIT FOR AN EARLY AND SIMULATANEOUS DETECTION OF BIOCHEMICAL MARKERS IN A PATIENT'S SAMPLE

摘要

The present invention comprises an immunochemical assay for determination of at least two antigens in a sample. The immunochemical assay comprises contacting a sample from a patient with a carrier molecule that contains at least two capture antibodies, each of which specifically binds to a binding moiety of an antigen in the sample. The assay further contains a detection antibody that specifically binds the same antigens on different binding moieties than binding moieties used by the capture antibodies. The detection agent is further attached to one or more detection probes to facilitate the detection of antigens in the sample. The immunochemical assay of the present invention is specifically designed to detect biochemical markers that are released at different time intervals in a patient's sample.
