Abstract
In the quest for early cancer detection, understanding tumor-associated markers is crucial. This webinar explores the revolutionary world of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and its application in identifying and validating new tumor-associated markers. Discover how this innovative technique provides a less invasive and more effective means of detecting cancer in its initial stages.
- ELISA fundamentals: delve into the principles of quantitative ELISAs and their pivotal role in medical diagnostics
- Antibody-antigen interactions: use a paper model to teach antibody-antigen interactions and gain insights into the specificity and sensitivity of the ELISA method
- ELISA workflow: step through the ELISA workflow, from sample preparation to data interpretation, and understand how each stage contributes to accurate cancer diagnosis (uses the ELISA Immuno Explorer Kit)
