k ELISA antibody test. Hand holding a multiwell sample tray in front of a computer monitor during an enzymelinked immunosorbent assay ELISA antibody test. The ELISA test checks for antibodies to viral diseases, in this case hepatitis C. First, the patients blood plasma is washed over a surface covered in the antigens of the virus being tested for. If antibodies are present then they will bind to these antigens. Next, peroxidase is added which binds to the antibodies. Then a chemical is added that changes colour when it comes in contact with peroxidase. Editorial Stock Photo - Afloimages
