Intro
Life. It happens. Maybe you shared a needle, maybe that girl you have been courting for the last year and a half gave it up. The truth of the matter is bodily fluids were shared, you are at risk for disease. In your pursuit to find out if you are indeed infected you under go the ELISA process, or Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay. Through the use of antibodies you can detect the presence of a disease agent in your blood. Antigens are the molecules called into action when your body undergoes an immune response, which would be likely to occur if a foreign agent was in your blood stream. Antigens are what the antibodies bind to and the antigens bind to the disease themselves therefore by using the ELISA process we can find you you are infected.
