Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Different monoclonal antibodies, both commercial and indigenously produced, were evaluated in various combinations to optimize an immunoradiometric assay (IRMA) system for human thyroid stimulating hormone (hTSH). During these studies, it was observed that mixing one of the indigenously produced hTSH monoclonal antibody (2B11) in the hTSH IRMA system using Immunotech (Beckman Coulter, Czech Republic) kit reagents, led to an overall increase in the assay binding and sensitivity (from 0.025 mIU/L to 0.015mIU/L) of this IRMA system. This is not a general property of all monoclonal antibodies against hTSH. The mechanism for this enhancement can be attributed to the formation of a multicomponent complex. © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
