Fluorescence Polarization Immunoassay
Fluorescence polarization immunoassays (FPIA) are homogenous competitive binding immunoassays in which fluorophore-labeled ligand competes with the unlabeled ligand for binding sites on the specific binder. When excited with polarized light, fluorophore ligands bound to binder rotate more slowly and emit light at a higher intensity than do free labeled ligands.
