This document summarizes ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), an immunoassay technique used to detect the presence and quantify antigens or antibodies. ELISA uses enzyme-labeled antibodies to detect the presence of an antigen or antibody in a solid-phase. It is a sensitive and quantitative technique that can be used to measure levels of antigens or antibodies in samples. There are different types of ELISA including direct, indirect, sandwich, and competitive ELISA depending on the antigen or antibody being detected.
