Published information on the major interactive variables of enzymic immunoassays for drugs, whether in urine or serum, is scanty. Using the Syva EMIT-dau Barbiturates assay as an example, we examined the following interactive variables with respect to test response: concentrations of enzyme, antibody, and drug; urine matrix; and time. The results suggest a process for optimizing this type of enzyme immunoassay. Transformation of the data gives indirect evidence of heterogeneous antibody reactions that are drug-concentration dependent.
