Abstract

This invention encompasses a method for measuring unsaturated thyroxine binding protein sites in a sample comprising intermixing with the sample an effective amount of fluorescent labeled tracer having binding affinity for thyroxine binding proteins and then measuring the amount of tracer bound to the thyroxine binding protein using fluorescence polarization techniques.
