Abstract

A non-competitive immunoassay for small analytes, wherein the analyte is reacted with two binding partners. The first binding partner binds to the analyte to form a complex between the first binding partner and the analyte, and the second binding partner binds to the complex formed by the first binding partner and the analyte. The resulting complex formed between the analyte and the binding partners is detected. The binding partners are proteins, such as antibodies including antibody fragments.
