Methods DIRECT METHOD
Geometry of the test: conjugation between IgG, immobilized on the membrane of immunosensor and the excess of urease conjugated anti-IgG, free in solution.
(a)
COMPETITION METHOD
Geometry of the test: competition between IgG, immobilized on the membrane of immunosensor, and IgG free, for the urease conjugated anti-IgG, free in solution
