Abstract
Disclosed is a use of reaction kinetics to generate multiple dose-response curves from a single reaction, thus eliminating the need to run a second experiment with additional sample, reagents, and time to cover a broader measuring range than is available in a standard assay. Using a single protocol, the differences in the reaction kinetics for different sample concentrations yield different responses at different measurement times. Selection of the appropriate dose-response curve cross-section increases the measuring range and accuracy of the assay from a single reaction without substantially increasing imprecision. Several overlapping dose-response curves are pieced together to provide a standard curve to ensure continuity throughout the expanded measuring range.
