The principle of the double antibody sandwich ELISA is represented in Figure 1. In this assay the Alpha 1 Microglobulin present in samples reacts with the anti-Alpha 1 Microglobulin antibodies which have been adsorbed to the surface of polystyrene microtitre wells. After the removal of unbound proteins by washing, anti-A1M antibodies conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP), are added. These enzyme-labeled antibodies form complexes with the previously bound A1M. Following another washing step, the enzyme bound to the immunosorbent is assayed by the addition of a chromo
