A. General description
The ELISASreening Kit is an immunochemical test for the quantitation of
Microcystins (MCY) in algae or water samples. The test principle is based on a
direct competitive enzyme-linked Immunosorbent assay (dcELISA). In the assay,
MCY toxin in the sample competes with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated
MCY for a limited amount of antibody which has been coated on the bottom of
the test wells.
