Chapter 37.2, Problem 2MI
Summary Introduction
To determine: The type of immunofluorescence which would be most likely to be used to test a clinical sample for the presence of an intracellular pathogen such as hepatitis C virus.
Introduction: ELISA which is also called Enzyme-Linked immune-sorbent Assay is the technique in which an enzyme-linked indicator antibody is used to visualize antigen-antibody reactions. Indirect and direct immune-sorbent assay are the two types of ELISA. The indirect immune-sorbent assay detects antibodies while direct immune-sorbent assay detects antigens.
