What Is an Emit Screen

Immunoassay tests using EMIT are often used for workplace drug screening. An EMIT test utilizes visible spectroscopy to measure the presence of certain chemicals or molecules in a substance by evaluating the interaction of those chemicals with specific antibodies or antigens.

How does Cedia immunoassay work?

A cloned enzyme donor immunoassay (CEDIA) is a competitive homogenous enzyme immunoassay. This assay makes use of two component fragments of an enzyme which are each individually inactive. Under the right conditions in solution these fragments can spontaneously reassemble to form the active enzyme.

What is microparticle enzyme immunoassay?

Microparticle enzyme immunoassay. (MEIA) is a technique in which the solid-phase support consists of very small microparticles in liquid suspension. Specific reagent antibodies are covalently bound to the microparticles.
