れている。2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, it has been widely used to detect immunologically active substances such as proteins appearing in a living body in connection with various diseases by utilizing an antigen-antibody reaction and to use them for diagnosis.
As a measurement method using such an antigen-antibody reaction,
Radioimmunoassay (RIA), enzyme immunoassay (EIA),
Fluorescence immunoassay (FIA), latex agglutination (L
A), various methods such as immunoturbidimetry (TIA) have been put to practical use.

に懸濁され、検体と混合される。In particular, LA is widely used because its operation is simple and can be measured in a short time. In LA, latex particles having an antibody (or antigen) corresponding to the antigen (or antibody) to be measured bound to its surface are used. Such latex particles are suspended in a medium such as a buffer and mixed with the analyte.

適している。[0004] The antigen (or antibody) in the specimen and the antibody (or antigen) on the surface of the latex cause an antigen-antibody reaction to form an immune complex, and the antigen (or antibody) in the specimen is formed.
, The latex particles are crosslinked and aggregated. The degree of aggregation can be easily measured by a change in absorbance or a change in intensity of scattered light. This LA is B /
Since the number of reaction steps is smaller than that of RIA or EIA which requires F separation, the measurement method is simple and suitable for an automatic analyzer.

A用試薬により測定すると、プロゾーン現象を起こし、
実際よりかなり低い測定値しか得られず、精度良く診断
することができない場合があった。However, antigens (or antibodies) contained in a specimen at a high concentration, for example, C-reactive protein (CRP) contained at a relatively high concentration in serum, are conventionally used as L-proteins.
When measured with the reagent for A, a prozone phenomenon occurs,
In some cases, the measured value was considerably lower than the actual value, and the diagnosis could not be performed with high accuracy.

た。[0006] It is difficult to judge this prozone phenomenon from the measured values, and although the means for judging the prozone from the start of the reaction, that is, the rate of increase in the absorbance, is installed in a part of the automatic analyzer, the effect is not as good. Not enough .. The most reliable measure is to add CR to the reaction mixture after the measurement is completed.
P is added, and it is determined whether or not the phenomenon is a prozone phenomenon based on whether the measured value further increases or conversely decreases. If it is determined that this is a prozone phenomenon, the sample must be diluted or the amount of sample collected must be reduced, and the measurement performed again. In order to avoid such complicated operations, it has been desired to provide a reagent that does not cause a prozone phenomenon.
