Radioimmunoassay for methaqualone

摘要

A sensitive radioimmunoassay for methaqualone and its major metabolites is described. Included within this disclosure is the preparation of novel methaqualone haptens, the preparation of antigens from such haptens by coupling to an immunogenic carrier material, the use of such antigens to elicit antibodies selective to methaqualone and its major metabolites and an improved radiolabelled derivative of a methaqualone analog used in the practice of said radioimmunoassay.
