Means for the detection of free ligand analogue conjugate in fluids from competitive ligand-receptor assay processes. Li- gand analogue antibodies that bind the ligand analogue conjugate with substantially greater affinity than their affinity for target ligand are selected and used in competitive ligand-receptor assay processes to bind the free fraction of the ligand analogue conju- gate. This means permits the detection of the free fraction of ligand analogue conjugate even in the presence of substantially high- er concentrations of free target ligand. For the purposes of the present invention, ligand analogue antibodies are antibodies that exhibit at least 100 X greater affinity for the ligand analogue conjugate compared to their affinity for the target ligand.
