Abstract

Antigenic phenethylamine conjugates are produced by blocking the amine of the phenethylamine hapten with a group, coupling of the phenethylamine to a carrier, and removal of the blocking group. Specific phenethylamines useful in this invention are amphetamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine. The antigens thus produced can be used to raise antibodies in animal bodies, the antibodies being specific to the phenethylamine compound employed. In particular, this disclosure is directed to blocked phenethylamines for production of antigens and to a process for preparing the antigens.
