METHOD FOR QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT COMPONENTS CONTAINED IN PROTEIN-CONTAINING LIQUID SAMPLE

摘要

A method for quantitative analysis of low molecular weight components which are contained in a protein-containing liquid sample originating from body fluids and are capable of binding to said protein, characterized by incorporating into the liquid sample a compound having the formula (I): X-(Y)p-SO3M (I) in which M is hydrogen ion, an alkali metal ion, or ammonium ion; X is a straight or branched alkyl, alkenyl, fluorinated alkyl, or fluorinated alkenyl group containing at least 6 carbon atoms, Y is a divilent organic residue; and p is 0 r 1. The compound represented by formula (I) liberates thyroid hormone from bound protein to facilitate analysis.
