EMIT(Enzyme Multiplied Immunoassay Technique)
EMIT is a Homogeneous Enzymimmunoassay method which is used to analyze specific components in biological liquids. EMIT stands for Enzyme Multiplied Immunoassay Technique. The Immunoassay-based method, first introduced by Syva in 1973 for the qualitative and quantitative/ semiquantative determination of drug levels and metabolites in serum and urinary samples, is widely used for screening in Drug of Abuse testing.
