This number corresponds to two-thirds of the women attending the pharmacy for this purpose during the study period. The same urine sample was also tested by experienced analysts with Pregnosticon All-In--an essentially identical method with a guaranteed sensitivity of 1000 U/1 (2nd IS)--as well as assayed for choriogonadotrophin (CG) content by a sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA simple, sensitive, and reliable single-unit nonradioactive method for the detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in concentrated urine and the diagnosis of early pregnancy is reported. This unit, presently termed the Ayerst pregnancy test kit (APTK), consists of four components: a sampler-filter paper cone, an ultrafilter-concentrator to which a vial holder is attached, a support stand with a mirror, and an immunologic reagent vial. In the APTK, 5 to 6 ml of urine were sampled, filtered, and concentrated, and the hCG in the retentate was detected by Ayerst immunologic reagents [APTK(AY)] and by the Pregnosticon "All In" [APTK(P)].
