A sensitive and specific ELISA for human thyrotropin(hTSH) is established with using two anti-hTSH monoclonal antibody. One of them is coated on the microtiter plate, the other is conjugate of biotin. The label is horseradish peroxidase(HRP) conjugate of streptavidin. TMB-H2O2 solution is used as the substrate of HRP. The sensitivity of the assay is 0.02 mIU/L. The intra-assay CVs and the intre-assay CVs of 3 samples are lower than 7.8% and 9.6%, respectively. The analytical recoveries are in the range from 93.3% to 107.8%. The assay is specific for hTSH and no cross reaction with other glyco-proteins, such as hLH , hHCG, hFSH. TSH concentrations range from 0.3 to 4,1 mlU/L in 142 normal subjects. As a reference IRMA(Multipact) method, the
