Novel compositions are provided for the determination of one or a group of organic materials (hereinafter referred to as "ligands"), where the compositions have a ligand or ligand counterfeit bonded to an enzyme, the conjugate referred to as "enzyme-bound-ligand." Specifically, the ligands are benzdiazocycloheptane drugs, which are conjugated to an enzyme, so that upon binding of a receptor, usually an antibody, the activity of the enzyme changes. Determinations of the benzdiazocycloheptane drug...
