Abstract
The invention relates to a competitive immunoassay test system as well as a method to simply and rapidly detect pyrogens contained in a sample by means of the pyrogen binding domain of pattern recognition receptors. The test system comprises an assay carrier having at least one immobilized pyrogen binding domain of a pattern recognition receptor with a labeled, displaceable ligand, wherein the displacement of the ligand is indicated by a pyrogen contained in the sample by a color reaction of the labeling. The assay carrier preferably also has at least one immobilized ligand capture protein, which binds the displaced ligand and thereby initiates a color reaction of the labeling.
