Radioimmunoassay (RIA) is a very sensitive in vitro assay technique used to measure concentrations of antigens (for example, hormone levels in blood) by use of antibodies. As such, it can be seen as the inverse of a radiobinding assay, which quantifies an antibody by use of corresponding antigens. Although the RIA technique is extremely sensitive and extremely specific, requiring specialized equipment, it remains among the least expensive methods to perform such measurements.

That is a 1-to-14 ratio compared to about 1-to-3 in golf.â. For some perspective, the minimum salary in MLB is $500,000, or about as much as Granollers has earned so far this year in singles. And in tennis, players have to pay their own expenses.
