Solution

ELISA:

  1. ELISA is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technology used to detect and analyze antibodies, hormones, peptides, and proteins in the blood.
  2. It produces quantitative findings and separates non-specific and specific interactions that occur through repeated binding to solid surfaces, which is often a polystyrene multiwell plate.
  3. Rapid testing kits are used to assess the presence of antibodies in blood samples during a disease epidemic to analyze the spread of the disease, such as during the current COVID-19 outbreak.

Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay is the full name of this test. AIDS can be detected with this method.
