ELECTROCHEMICAL ENZYME IMMUNOASSAY FOR SIMULTANEOUSLY DETECTING A NUMBER OF ANALYTES

摘要

The invention relates to a method for conducting an enzyme immunoassay (EIA, ELISA) for qualitatively and/or quantitatively detecting analytes in a sample. To this end, the sample and a number of antibody types, which corresponds to the number of analytes to be identified and which are coupled to a number of different enzymes that corresponds to the number of the analytes to be identified, are placed in a common reaction vessel. In order to identify the different analytes, an antibody that is specific to each one of the analytes and antibodies that are specific to different analytes are coupled to respectively different enzymes. The different enzymes enable respectively different substrates to be converted and/or respectively different products to be produced.
