Abstract

See full text

The disclosure provides among other things an assay method that compensates for the presence of endogenous antibodies, e.g., autoantibodies, which might otherwise compromise the measurement of an analyte in a biological sample. In one embodiment, this method entails the use of a two labeled entities: a labeled detection agent and a labeled species-specific antibody, wherein the labeled species-specific antibody is specific for the species from which the biological sample was obtained. Sample analyte is bound by the detection agent and any anti-analyte autoantibodies present in the sample. Analyte bound by autoantibodies is detected via the species-specific antibody, optionally labeled.
