A scheme for the development and validation of enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) for measurement of angiogenic biomarkers in human blood.

Research output: Chapter in Book/Conference proceeding › Chapter › peer-review

Abstract

In this chapter the authors describe a protocol that can be applied to design and validate an ELISA technique using commercially available reagents. This often proves an economical alternative to purchasing off-the-shelf-kits. In addition, this protocol allows custom validation of the ELISA to a specific purpose. We have illustrated our protocol using VCAM as an example, however the principles and techniques described can equally be applied to all ELISA based techniques.
