Abstract
This article reviews the use of time-resolved fluorimetric detection of lanthanide chelate luminescence as a detection method for ultrasensitive bioanalytical assays. Assay formats and detection methods, and the principle of time-resolved fluorimetric detection, are described. Detection systems, assay formats, reagents, and instrumentation for time-resolved fluorimetric detection are outlined. A review of published and commercially available immunoassays and DNA hybridization assays using time-resolved fluorimetric detection of lanthanide chelate luminescence is given.
