Abstract
Fat from boars containing androstenone is absorbed to a piece of filter paper. The filter paper is then placed in a tube and a buffer containing antibodies against androstenone is added. Following incubation the filter paper is removed, and by measurement of the residual binding capacity for androstenone in the buffer a relative value for androstenone content in the fat is obtained. The coefficient of correlation between the results obtained by this rapid method and the ordinary radioimmunoassay was −0.95.Keywords
