Radioimmunoassay and enzyme immunoassay compared for determination of digoxin

L Sun and V Spiehler

Patients' sera were analyzed for digoxin by using two different radioimmunoassays and an enzyme immunoassay. Quantitative results obtained by enzyme immunoassay (I) were compared to results obtained on aliquots of the same sample by the radioimmunoassays (II and III). The correlation coefficients were: I vs. II 0.90, n=108; I vs. III 0.94, n=102; and II vs. III 0.95, n=158. Day-to-day precision (10 days) on a low control (1.3 mug/liter) and a high control 3.0 mg/liter), expressed as coefficients of variation, were: I, 13% and 7.8%, II, 4.0% and 4.7%; and III, 8.9% and 4.2%. Ten digoxin-supplemented samples (0-8 mug/liter) were analyzed by the three methods. Correlation coefficients were: supplemented sample vs. I, O.99; supplemented sample vs. II, 0.97; supplemented sample vs. III, 0.98.
