Comparison of an indirect format ELISA on modified graphite and polystyrene surfaces against triazines.

An indirect format enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay (ELISA) on graphite rods ( 0.8 mm x 20 mm) and, for comparison, on microtiter plates has been developed against terbuthylazine. For this purpose, a series of 2-aminoalkyl-4-chloro-6-terbuthyl-s-triazine-2,6-diamine ELISA haptens with alkyl spacer lengths of 2, 4, 6, and 8 CH2 groups has been synthesized.
