Description

A radioimmunoassay procedure is described for the measurement of phenytoin (5,5-diphenylhydantoin) in serum samples. Antiserum to phenytoin was produced against phenytoin - valeric acid - bovine serum albumin conjugate. 125I labelled phenytoin - acetic acid - tyrosine methyl ester was used as a tracer. The assay covers a range of 10-500 ng/cm3 and has a sensitivity of 0.25 ng. The assay is validated by specificity tests, precision profile and recovery tests. (author) 8 refs.; 6 figs.; 2 tabs
