One aspect of the present invention relates to assays for the detection of mycophenolic acid. The method comprises including in an assay medium suspected of containing mycophenolic acid a releasing agent for releasing mycophenolic acid from a complex with endogenous proteins. Another aspect of the present invention is an improvement in a method for the determination of mycophenolic acid in a sample suspected of containing such analyte. The method comprises the steps of (a) providing in combination in an assay medium the sample and a binding partner for the analyte and (b) detecting the binding of the binding partner to the analyte. The improvement comprises including in the assay medium a releasing agent for releasing mycophenolic acid from a complex with endogenous proteins. The present invention also provides assay reagents as well as packaged kits useful for performing the methods of the invention.

L'une des réalisations de la présente invention concerne des dosages servant à mettre en évidence la présence d'acide mycophénolique. Le procédé utilisé consiste à introduire dans un milieu d'analyse susceptible de contenir de l'acide mycophénolique, un agent provoquant la libération de l'acide mycophénolique d'un complexe contenant des protéines endogènes. Une autre des réalisations de la présente invention concerne un perfectionnement du procédé de titrage de l'acide mycophénolique dans un échantillon susceptible de contenir un tel analyte. Le procédé amélioré consiste (a) à combiner, dans un milieu d'analyse, l'échantillon avec un partenaire de liaison de l'analyte, puis (b) à détecter la liaison du partenaire de liaison de l'analyte. L'amélioration réside en l'inclusion, dans le milieu d'analyse, d'un agent provoquant la libération de l'acide mycophénolique d'un complexe contenant des protéines endogènes. L'invention concerne également des réactifs de dosage ainsi qu'un nécessaire permettant de mettre en oeuvre les procédés de l'invention.
