Abstract
The invention concerns a method for the immunological determination of an analyte in a sample using magnetic particles coated with the analyte to be determined or analyte-specific bonding partners and directly detectable non-magnetic particles coated with analyte-specific bonding partners or the analyte to be determined or using a non-magnetic substance which is indirectly detectable, and incubation of the reaction mixture. The method is characterized in that the magnetic particles are subsequently separated from the reaction mixture using a magnetic test strip and the analyte concentration is determined directly.
