Abstract:
Immunoassay methods and reagents for measuring the levels of lead in a test sample via the quantification of porphobilinogen use antibodies prepared with compounds of Formulas (II) and (III), wherein X and Y are linking groups consisting of 0 to 2 heteroatoms and 0 to 8 carbon atoms linked to an immunogenic carrier material P wherein P is preferably bovine serum albumin. Also described are the synthesis of fluorescein tracers of the structure of Formulas (V) and (VII), wherein A and C are linking groups consisting of 0 to 2 heteroatoms and 0 to 8 carbon atoms linked to a detectable moiety Q, and wherein Q is a detectable moiety, preferably fluorescein or a fluorescein derivative.
