Abstract:

Heavy metal immunoassay is a new technology for the detection of heavy metals. Over the traditional chemical
methods, immunoassay has many advantages such as fast detection, low cost, simple operation, high sensitivity and excellent
selectivity. It can be used for rapid detection on site. The recent progress of heavy metal immunoassay is briefly reviewed in
this article. Future development trends and prospects are also proposed.

Key words: heavy metal, monoclonal antibody immunoassays, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), colloidal gold immuno-chromatographic assay (CIA), fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA)
