OBJECTIVES:
1 To determine if a particular protein is present in a sample.
2 To determine the how much particular protein is present.
PRINCIPLE:
an antigen or antibody.
ELISA involves detection of analyte in a liquid sample using liquid
recognized by antibody or
It can be used to test for antibodies that recognize an antigen.

of western blot. Between each step, the plate is typically washed with a mild
detergent solution to remove any proteins or antibodies that are not
specifically bound. After the final wash step, the plate is developed by adding
an enzymatic substrate to produce a visible signal, which indicates the
quantity of antigen in the sample.
MATERIALS:
1. Antigen 1: BSA, 10 mg/ml (for the standard curve)
2. Antigen 2: the albumin fraction
3. Antibody: rabbit anti-BSA (will be provided by the assistant)
4. Conjugate: goat anti-rabbit IgG-ALP diluted 1/1000 (will be provided by the assistant)
5. ELISA plate: plastic plates with high binding properties
6. Coating buffer: 50 mM sodium carbonate, pH9.6
7. Incubation buffer: PBS (phosphate buffered saline), pH7.2 with 0.05% Tween 20 (v/v) =
PBST
8. Washing solution: PBST
9. Enzyme substrate: p-nitro phenyl phosphate 1.25mg/ml (dissolved in water)
10. Substrate buffer (1M dietanolamine buffer, pH9.8
made (1:1) by the assistants immediately prior to use.
11. Multi-channel pipettes
METHODS:
1. 100 l of all samples are transferred to a microtiter plate. Do not use the wells closest to
the edge of the plate. The plate allowed to stand in room temperature overnight (Dont let
the well dry).
2. The coated ELISA plate is washed 3 times in washing solution (PBST).
3. Blocking solution 200 l/well (0.5% gelatin in PBS) is added to all coated wells.
4. Incubate in room temperature for 30 minutes.
5. The coated ELISA plate is washed 3 times in washing solution (PBST).
6. 100 l anti-BSA antibody diluted 1/2000 is added in incubation buffer (PBST) to all
treated wells.
7. Incubate in room temperature for 30 minutes.
8. The coated ELISA plate is washed 3 times in washing solution.
9. 100 l Alkaline-Phosphatase conjugated goat anti-rabbit antibody diluted 1/1000 times is
added in incubation buffer (PBST) to all treated wells.
10. Incubate in room temperature for 30 minutes.
11. The coated ELISA plate is washed 3 times in washing solution.
12. 100l enzyme substrate solution, p-nitro phenyl phosphate, are added to all treated wells.
13. Read the absorbance at 405 nm in the ELISA plate reader.
Calculations: (Use an MS Excel sheet to plot the graph)
1. Standard curve: Plot the Absorbance to log dilution of the BSA on a graph sheet. The plot
is made for all the time points, value from the Elisa result.
2. The best time point with smooth negative sigmoidal curve is chosen and the graph is
made for its respective absorbance to log concentration values. This graph ends up in a
smooth positive sigmoidal curve.
3. The slope is calculated for the resulting Absorbance Vs Log concentration and this slope
should be used to calculate the concentration.
4. The time point used to plot Abs. Vs Log conc. for standard curve is used for the
experiment sample also.
5. The mean concentration of all dilutions in the particular time point are calculated.

CONCLUSION:
In this experiment, we have been shown how to conduct an experiment
of ELISA in a right way. From the demonstration of ELISA, any foreign
substances could be detected by the primary antibodies that bind to it. The
primary antibodies were then being detected by secondary antibodies that
are coupled to an enzyme such as peroxidase. This enzyme will react and
convert the reagent that being added later on. This will result in coloured
mixture and hence, will be easy for us to analyse the foreign substances.
