Abstract

Tyrosyl, thyronine, and histidyl compounds of the formulas: ##SPC1##Where R' is selected from the group consisting of --OH and --NHPp and R" is selected from the class consisting of --H and --COPp, where Pp is a polypeptide chain having from 1 to 250 peptide groups, with or without pendant groups, X is selected from the class consisting of H and I; when X is I, X' is selected from the group consisting of H and I; and n is 0 or 1, where X' is H when n is 0; are conjugated to a carrier by first forming a primary aromatic amine on the carrier, diazotizing the amine, and coupling the tyrosyl, histidyl, or thyronine through the diazo group to form a novel antigenic conjugate. This novel antigenic conjugate can be injected into an animal for production of specific antibodies which are useful in assaying for the target, particularly by radioassaying.
