The Use of Immunological Techniques in Plant Hormone Analysis

  • Conference paper
Plant Growth Substances 1985

Part of the book series: Proceedings in Life Sciences ((LIFE SCIENCES))

Abstract

Immunoassays were first used by Berson and Yalow [4] to measure insulin in human blood and the technique was subsequently adapted for analysis of a variety of compounds involved in human and animal metabolism [1]. Antisera raised against indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and gibberellin A3 were initially used in an assay based on inhibition of activation of modified bacteriophage T4 [6, 8, 9]. However, these reports received only limited attention and it was not until the development of radioimmunoassays (RIA) [2, 10, 14, 18–21, 25] and enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assays (ELISA [3, 5, 22, 24] for plant hormones that the potential value of immunological techniques for growth regulator research began to be more generally appreciated.
