This is crucial for the accurate identification of different influenza strains and for the proper handling of these samples. However, the composition of a VTM can also pose a signif...

For ELISA, a standardized ELISA kit is required. The antigen is not purified or diluted, and the capture and detection antibodies are incompatible. To test the antigen in a sample, the sample must be mixed with a known volume of blocking solution. This allows the samples to bind to the capture antib...

With experimental design all the elements involved within the ELISA together with buffers, incubation time and plate type may be analyzed. The aim is to develop a fundamental working methodology by figuring out the antibody which ought to be the seize antibody and which antibody should be the detect...
