Award Amount: $50,000.00

Abstract:
IMMUNOCHEMICAL TECHNIQUES HAVE MANY DIVERSE APPLICATIONS. HOWEVER, THEY ARE RESTRICTED TO USE ONLY IN AQUEOUS MEDIA. ECONOMICAL TECHNIQUES FOR DIRECT ORGANIC PHASE ANALYSIS AND IMMUNOAFFINITY ISOLATION WOULD SIGNIFICANTLY BROADEN THE USEFULNESS OF ANTIBODY-BASED TECHNOLOGY. THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROJECT IS TO DETERMINE THE FEASIBILITY OF EXPLOITING ANTIGEN-ANTIBODY BINDING IN THE ORGANIC PHASE. A SERIES OF SOLVENTS, ANTIBODIES, AND ANTIGENS WILL BE SELECTED TO IDENTIFY THE PARAMETERS INFLUENCING ANTIGEN-ANTIBODY BINDINGIN SOLVENT. DETECTABLE SPECIFIC BINDING WILL BE THE BASIS FOR JUSTIFYING DEVELOPMENT OF ORGANIC PHASE IMMUNOASSAYS, AFFINITY ISOLATION TECHNIQUES, AND OTHER NOVEL APPLICATIONS FOR ANTIBODIES.
