We developed an affordable simulation for the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), making advanced topics like immunodetection accessible for high school biology students.

Area of Science:

  • Biotechnology
  • Immunology
  • Clinical Diagnostics

Background:

  • The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is a cornerstone laboratory technique.
  • ELISA has broad applications in research, diagnostics, and daily life.
  • Implementing ELISA in high school biology education faces significant challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a cost-effective and reliable method for simulating ELISA.
  • To enable high school students to engage with advanced biological concepts.
  • To facilitate learning in immunodetection, clinical diagnostics, and colorimetric analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an inexpensive simulation protocol for ELISA.
  • Classroom implementation of the simulated assay.
Keywords:
