Abstract：
:We describe a sensitive radioimmunoassay for rapidly determining the concentration of thyroxine in 10 microL of human serum. Aggregated antithyroxine antibodies are used to separate bound and free hormone. This speeds the assay and economizes on reagents without loss of sensitivity, specificity, or precision. Results for normal subjects and patients with thyroid disease agree well with those obtained by other, well-established techniques.
