Abstract
A method and apparatus for performing a chemiluminescent immunoassay featuring electrochemical techniques to generate an oxidant used to trigger the chemiluminescence of the labelled immunoreactant. The generation of the oxidant is precisely controlled and the oxidant precisely and uniformly delivered to provide a more accurate, precise and sensitive assay.
