Abstract
Solid-phase radioimmunoassay methods for the uniform analysis in hemolyzed whole blood and urine of opiates, methamphetamine, cocaine, free morphine, and phencyclidine using Coat-A-Count® kits available from Diagnostic Products Corporation were tested for cost effectiveness without compromising the reliability of the results. Results indicate these kits are superior in performance in cross-reactivity studies, noted particularly in the methamphetamine assay, labor conservation, and cost-effectiveness to double-antibody radioimmunoassay methods.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
