Title: Monoclonal antibodies to synthetic pyrethroids and method for detecting the same

Patent ·
OSTI ID:868263

Methods are described for making specific monoclonal antibodies which may be used in a sensitive immunoassay for detection of synthetic pyrethroids in foods and environmental samples. Appropriate sample preparation and enzyme amplification of the immunoassay for this widely-used class of pesticides permits detection at low levels in laboratory and field tested samples.
