The concept behind this book is to provide a detailed and practical
overview of the development and use of immunoassays in many
different areas. Immunoassays are analytical tests that utilise
antibodies to measure the amount, activity or identity of an
analyte. This book is designed to provide a critical and helpful
insight into the subject and to give the user practical information
that may be of assistance in assay format selection, antibody
generation/selection and choice of appropriate detection
strategies. It is comprised of 13 chapters written by highly
experienced researchers in the fields of antibody-based research,
immunoassay development, assay validation, diagnostics and
microfluidics. Beginning with a comprehensive survey of antibodies,
immunoassay formats and signalling systems, the book elucidates key
topics related to the development of an ideal antibody-based
sensor, focuses on the important topic of surface modification,
explores key parameters in the immobilisation of antibodies onto
solid surfaces, discusses the move to 'lab-on-a-chip'-based devices
and investigates the key parameters necessary for their
development. Three of the chapters are dedicated to the areas of
clinical diagnostics, infectious disease monitoring and food
security, where immunoassay-based applications have become highly
valuable tools. The future of immunoassays, including
next-generation immunoassays, electrochemical-immunoassays and
'lab-on-a-chip'-based systems, is also discussed. The book also
covers the use of optical detection systems (with a focus on
surface plasmon resonance) in immunoassays, provides a compilation
of important, routinely used immunoassay protocols and addresses
problems that may be encountered during assay development.
