A facile and sensitive chemiluminescence enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) of estriol 3-sulfate using a bridge-heterologous system was established. 6 alpha-Hydroxyestriol 3-sulfate 6-hemisuccinate was synthesized as a novel hapten. Antisera were raised in male guinea-pigs against 6 alpha-hydroxyestriol 3-sulfate 6-hemisuccinate-bovine serum
Antisera were raised in male guinea pigs against 6-oxoestriol 3-sulfate O-carboxymethyloxime-bovine serum albumin (BSA) conjugate. The antisera to this antigen exhibited high affinity (Ka=4.7 X 10(9)M-1) and excellent specificity for estriol 3-sulfate, showing slight cross-reactions (less than 0.43%) with other

Estriol (E3), the most abundant estrogen in pregnancy is produced predominantly in the placenta from androgen precursors of fetal origin. The estriol so formed is secreted efficiently into the maternal circulation where it is converted to 4 conjugates--estriol-3-sulfate (E3-3S), estriol-16-glucosiduronate
A highly specific anti-estriol 3-sulfate antiserum was treated with 50% ammonium sulfate, and the crude globulin fraction was coupled to CNBr-activated Sepharose-4B. Addition of 0.1M Tris-HC1 buffer (pH 8.3) containing 0.1M glutamine to the solution of antigen-antibody enabled assaying without
