1.1 This test method covers an immunological method to determine the amount of protein
in Guayule Natural Rubber (GNR) and its products using rabbit antisera specific for
Guayule Natural Rubber latex proteins. This immunoassay procedure quantitatively measures
the level of GNR proteins in solution using an inhibition format. The samples may
include but are not restricted to, gloves or other GNR product extracts, and liquid
GNR samples which have been collected in order to measure the protein levels.
