    Enzyme immunoassays, like ELISA, offer a safe, sensitive, and specific alternative for detecting antibodies and antigens. These methods are becoming the preferred choice over traditional immunoassays for disease diagnosis.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Diagnostic Medicine
    • Biochemistry

    Background:

    • Immunoassays are widely used for disease diagnosis.
    • Current methods like radioimmunoassay, immunofluorescence, and complement fixation have limitations including safety, shelf-life, and sensitivity.
    • Enzyme immunoassays have emerged as a significant advancement.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the application of heterogeneous enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA).
    • To highlight ELISA as a safe, sensitive, and specific alternative to existing diagnostic methods.
    • To discuss the quantitation of haptens, macromolecular antigens, and antibodies using ELISA.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing literature on enzyme immunoassays.
    • Focus on heterogeneous enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.
