Explain how a pregnancy test works and how it is a variation of the ELISA technique.
Ans:-
HCG is (human Chorionic Gonadotropin). It is pregnancy hormone.The
amount of hCG in your body increases rapidly within 2-3 dayz of
pregnancy. hCG levels will double every 72 hours.Its become highest
at eight to ten weeks.The urine of women is taken into vessel.When
urine of women comes in contact with the specially treated strip on
a pregnancy test stick, indicating whether or not hCG, the
pregnancy hormone, has been detected.
In ELISA pregnancy, can be detected by human chorionic gonadotropin
hormone (HCG), the commonly measured protein .

Elisa Test The standard test for the HIV virus is the Elisa test, which tests for the presence of HIV antibodies. If an individual does not have the HIV virus, the test will come back negative for the presence of HIV antibodies 99.8% of the time and will come back positive for the presence of HIV antibodies 0.2% of the time (a false positive). If an individual has the HIV virus, the test will come back positive 99.8% of the...
ELISA is a Answers: a. A technique that can detect and estimate the concentration of a protein by reacting with a primary antibody, then reacting with a secondary antibody containing a detection system. b. Mechanical separation of mixtures of cells based on their surface antigens. Antibodies with different fluorescent labels are used in the separation. c. The use of patient's serum to identify antibodies useful against various infectious diseases. d. Technique to identify proteins needed for growth of pathogens inside...
