Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay

19.0K
In 1971, Peter Perlman and Eva Engvall developed an Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA or EIA). ELISA differs from western blot in that the assays are conducted in microtiter plates or in vivo rather than on an absorbent membrane.
There are many different types of ELISAs, but they all involve an antibody molecule whose constant region binds an enzyme, leaving the variable region free to bind its specific antigen.  Enzyme-substrate reaction allows the antigen to be visualized or...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Benchmarking new immunoinformatics tools for antibody repertoire analysis is challenging due to the lack of gold standard datasets. IgSimulator was developed to generate realistic antibody repertoires for tool validation.
