Description:
This project is a round-robin evaluation of commercially available Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) technology to quantitatively or qualitatively measure the hormone estrone (E1) in combined animal feeding operation (CAFO) receiving streams. ELISA is meant to be a simple, user-friendly technology that uses competition between enzyme labeled conjugates and the target analyte in the sample to bind with a limited number of antibody binding sites on a plate. The target compound concentration is determined by a color change measured on a standard plate reader.
