Summary Introduction
To review:
The techniques of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
Introduction:
Microscopic organisms are useful to humankind in a number of aspects but these may also prove to be harmful as they can cause numerous diseases. The immune system of the animal body is capable of resisting most of the infections but there are times when the invading pathogens are able to negatively affect the body. The presence of antigens in the body can be confirmed through the technique of ELISA.
