Abstract

An affinity column antibody purification method using a synthetic hCG analyte-analog insolubilized on a support material. The immobilized hCG analyte-analogs are peptide sequences which duplicate or mimic the determinants formed by the amino acid residues of the C-terminus peptide sequence or portions or variants thereof. The antibodies produced according to the present invention are useful in immunoassays for hCG.
