An indirect ultramicro ELISA system (UME) for the determination of antibodies to measles virus by the cuban technology of Ultramicro Analytical Systems (SUMA) was developed. A number of 448 serum samples from the National System of Seroepidemiological Surveillance of Measles were simultaneously processed by the Ultramicro ELISA system and by the haemagglutination inhibition technique. Results were compared in both assays. Afterwards; 120 serum pairs obtained from the same source were studies and processed in a similar way. Results evidenced the usefulness of such immunoenzymatic system for the serological diagnosis and the positive validation of replacing conventional techniques by this novel technology.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
