TYPES 1) SANDWICH ELISA: In a microtitre plate ,wells are coated with specific antibody eg- e.coli -antigen test,specific antibody is placed. Specimen to be tested is added If the specimen contains suspected antigen (antigen-antibody reaction) to detect this reaction ,anti-serum conjugated with an enzyme is added it binds to antigen that's already attached to antibody Positive results : Enzyme+antiserum  act on substrate produce colour that's read by elisa reader. 2) INDIRECT ELISA: Microtitre plate wall coated with specific antigen that help in detection of antibody If positive antigen -antibody reaction occur  Substrate: antibody to antigen c...
