Fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) is a technique which has been known for a number of years, but despite its many advantages, it has not seen clinical utility. The main reason for this is the lack of simple, rapid high performance instrumentation suitable for use in a clinical laboratory. This problem was addressed and an instrument developed which meets these needs. The solutions of the 2 other problems associated with the technique (i.e., non-specific binding of tracer to serum proteins and the intrinsic fluorescence of serum) were also accomplished. Assays for a variety of therapeutic drugs including gentamicin, theophylline, phenytoin and phenobarbital were developed and shown to correlate well with a number of reference methods. The assays were totally automated with a concomitant increase in speed and ease of use and a significant improvement in performance over the manual system.
