Abstract
Provided is a means for improving measurement accuracy in an immunoassay using a dry plastic cell. A method for reducing adsorption of bubbles onto a cell side surface in an immunoassay, the method including carrying out a reaction and/or measurement in a presence of a surfactant, wherein the immunoassay comprises carrying out an antigen-antibody reaction in a dry plastic cell using an immunoassay reagent which immunologically reacts with a substance to be measured in a sample and carrying out an optical measurement of a resultant reacted product.
Claims18
A method for reducing adsorption of a bubble on a side surface of a dry plastic cell during an immunoassay between an antigen and antibody, the method comprising:
- adding to the dry plastic cell, a surfactant in an amount sufficient to reduce adsorption of the bubble on the side surface of the dry plastic cell;
- and
- adding to the dry plastic cell, the antigen or an antigen-comprising sample, antibody, and an immunoassay reagent.
