An indirect ultramicroELISA method was normalized for the detection of total antibodies to Adenovirus (AD) (UMELISA AD). The optimum concentration of surface antigen determined was 30 micrograms/mL; serum dilution was of 1:40; and conjugate dilution, of 1:1,000. The UMELISA AD was compared with the complement fixing and indirect immunofluorescence techniques. Results showed accordance by 88% and 96.6%, respectively. The method is valid for the screening of antibodies in seroepidemiological studies as well as for the diagnosis of the infection by paired serum samples.

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.
