Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides compositions, devices and methods suitable for the increased sensitivity and selectivity of binding assays thereby reducing false positive results without little or no reduction in the detection of true positives. The present invention is based on the novel discovery that an oxidative agent in the context of the device of the present invention results in decreased false positive reactivity with little or no reduction in true positive reactivity. The devices, compositions and methods of the present invention may be used, for example, to detect pathogens giving rise to endogenous urine antibodies include those organisms known to be causative agents in sexually-transmitted diseases and other diseases. The devices and methods of the present invention are also useful for various diagnostic procedures.
