Data obtained from routine analytical radioimmunoassays were processed using five curve-fitting procedures, viz. ‘Amersham’, single binding site, four parameter logistic, a linear logit-log and a polynomial logit-log. The polynomial logit-log procedure gave the best fit, but this was probably due to the inherent flexibility of this curve-fitting process since the analytical precision achieved with it was no better than what was obtained with most of the other procedures. A limited study failed to show that statistical weighting of data before curve fitting had any practical advantage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
