Abstract

In this study, a double antibody enzyme immunoassay for the direct determination of testosterone in plasma was developed. Testosterone 3-O-CMO was conjugated with horseradish peroxidase by the mixed anhydride method, and the conjugate purified by column chromatography (sephadex G-25). Testosterone antibody was obtained by immunization of rabbits against Testosterone-3-O-CMO-BSA. Cross reactions of the antiserum against some steroids were found to be
