AB An improved CEA kit using a second antibody suspension to replace the Z-gel separation was recently introduced. Both the improved and the original methods require use of a counting tube greater than 13 × 100 mm, which some instruments may not be able to count. A simple technique that allows the completed assay to be counted in small tubes (12 × 75 mm) without adverse effects on the assay results is described.
