Direct ELISA
Antigen is immobilized on walls of each well. Plate is then washed with PBS to
remove excess unbound antigens.
Add the detection substrate to each well; if the corresponding antigen is present in
the well, then the conjugated antibody will be bound to it, and the enzyme will
convert the substrate into a coloured product.
The more the antigens present, the more the conjugated antibodies that will bind
and the greater the enzyme activity, producing a darker colour.
