Abstract
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) are currently the method of choice in the detection and quantitation of low concentrations of specific antigens by specific antibodies. The assay is widely used in basic science, in monoclonal antibody selection, and in serological detection of viral infections. The ELISA plates are read in a specialized spectrophotometer called an ELISA reader. Each plate generates 96 separate readings, but since a given experiment may easily use 20 or more plates, some method of computer-mediated data management is very desirable. The software documentation describes the stepwise use of the software in increasingly more sophisticated uses. Every menu command is described. In the few places where an individual menu command may result in the irreversible loss or modification of the data, an appropriate warning is present in the manual. The software setup requires a stepwise analysis of the experiment used to set up the ELISA assay.
