Early detection of an infectious disease such as coronavirus is crucial to reducing the spread of such diseases
This model shows how the important medical test, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), is used to detect patients who have a virus or who have previously been exposed to a virus
ELISA relies on the use of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies that are used together to amplify a small signal
The model shows how primary antibodies, secondary antibodies, and detection works in direct ELISA, indirect ELISA and sandwich ELISA
Time to build model takes about 30 minutes
