ELISA is a popular format of wet-lab type analytic biochemistry assay that uses a solid-phase enzyme immunoassay (EIA) to detect the presence of a substance, usually an antigen, in a liquid sample or wet sample.
Several types of EIA tests exist. Validated and FDA-approved EIAs include âELISAâ (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) and âELFAâ (enzyme-linked fluorescent immunoassay). Lyme disease testing measures a person's antibody (or immune response) to the bacteria that cause Lyme disease.he Western blot or other FDA-approved type of immunoblot can help distinguish patients who have Lyme disease from those with other conditions. Additional information on the EIA/ELISA test is available.
