Abstract
A method for the quantification of an antigen, antibody, or antigen-antibody complex in a sample solution involving measuring the results of an immunochemical agglutination reaction or an agglutination inhibition reaction by spectrophotometry, wherein after the initiation of the agglutination between the antigen, antibody, or antigen-antibody complex to be determined and sensitized carrier particles to which a substance specifically bindable to the said antigen, antibody, or antigen-antibody complex is bound, a fixing compound is added to fix aggregates formed by the agglutination. A measuring reagent kit or pack includes all the components for use in carrying out the above method.
