PG - 764-6 LID - 10.1016/j.ab.2011.09.029 [doi] AB - Here we demonstrate a novel microwave-mediated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (MELISA) method that has dramatically reduced the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) timing to less than 5 min with a result comparable to that obtained by 18-h conventional ELISA. Efficacy of the MELISA procedure is demonstrated by detecting human immunoglobulin G (IgG), rabbit IgG, human immunoglobulin E (IgE), human interleuken 1beta (IL-1beta), Entamoeba histolytica antibody, and Aspergillus fumigatus antibody. MELISA could be an excellent substitute for time-consuming conventional ELISA for rapid diagnosis of diseases in cases of medical urgency, outbreak of infectious diseases, and screening of samples in blood banks or emigration counters.
