ELISA: A Powerful Tool for Detecting the Invisible

ELISA, or Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay, has become a cornerstone of medical diagnostics and biological research. This versatile technique allows scientists to detect and quantify minute amounts of target molecules, such as proteins, antibodies, and even viruses, with remarkable accuracy. In this blog, we'll delve into the world of ELISA, exploring its various types, its applications, and the exciting future directions this technology holds.

At its core, ELISA relies on the exquisite specificity of antibodies. Antibodies are highly specialized proteins produced by the immune system in response to foreign invaders. Each antibody can bind to a unique structure, called an antigen, on a specific molecule. In an ELISA, scientists leverage this binding property to create a sensitive detection system.

The 1960s witnessed a surge in interest in immunoassays, techniques that utilize the specificity of antibodies to detect target molecules. One such technique, radioimmunoassay (RIA), developed by Rosalyn Yalow and Solomon Berson, revolutionized medical diagnostics. RIA used radioactively labeled antibodies to detect antigens, offering high sensitivity. However, concerns regarding the safety of radioactive materials fueled the search for a safer alternative. The year 1971 marked a turning point. Independently, Eva Engvall and Peter Perlmann published their work on a novel technique – the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). ELISA replaced radioactive labels with enzymes, eliminating the safety concerns associated with RIA. Like RIA, ELISA harnessed the specific binding between antibodies and antigens. However, it employed enzymes that could generate a detectable signal, such as a color change, upon interacting with a substrate. This innovation paved the way for a safer and more user-friendly diagnostic tool.

The basic ELISA protocol involves immobilizing the target antigen on a solid surface like a plate well. Then, a sample containing the molecule of interest (e.g., a suspected virus) is introduced. If the target molecule is present, it will bind to the immobilized antigen. Next, an antibody specific to the target molecule, linked to an enzyme, is introduced. This "detection antibody" binds to the target molecule already attached to the antigen. Finally, a substrate specific to the enzyme is added. This antigen-antibody binding is visualized using an enzyme linked to a reporter molecule. When the enzyme encounters its substrate, a detectable signal is produced, such as a color change or luminescence. The intensity of this signal is directly proportional to the amount of antigen present in the sample, allowing for quantification. The beauty of ELISA lies in its adaptability. Several variations exist, each tailored for specific detection needs.

The Four Main ELISA Formats are:

Direct ELISA: Simplicity at its finest. In this format, the antigen is directly coated onto the ELISA plate. A labeled antibody specific to the antigen is then introduced, binding directly to its target. After washing away unbound molecules, the enzyme linked to the antibody generates a signal upon addition of the substrate. Direct ELISA offers a rapid and straightforward approach, but sensitivity can be lower compared to other formats due to the lack of amplification.

Indirect ELISA: Unveiling the Power of Amplification. Similar to the direct ELISA, the antigen is first coated onto the plate. However, instead of a labeled primary antibody, an unlabeled one specific to the antigen is used. This is followed by the introduction of a labeled secondary antibody that recognizes the species (e.g., mouse, rabbit) of the primary antibody. This two-step approach acts as an amplification strategy, significantly enhancing the signal compared to the direct ELISA. However, the presence of an extra incubation step and the potential for cross-reactivity with the secondary antibody add complexity.

Sandwich ELISA: Capturing the Antigen Between Two Antibodies. Here, the capture antibody, specific for one region of the antigen, is pre-coated onto the ELISA plate. The sample containing the antigen is then introduced, allowing it to be "sandwiched" between the capture antibody and a detection antibody specific for a different region of the same antigen. A labeled secondary antibody or a labeled detection antibody itself can then be used to generate the signal. Sandwich ELISA boasts high sensitivity due to the double-antibody recognition and is often the preferred format for quantifying analytes.

Competitive ELISA: A Race for Binding Sites. In this format, the antigen competes with a labeled antigen (usually a known amount) for binding sites on a capture antibody pre-coated onto the plate. The more antigen present in the sample, the less labeled antigen can bind to the capture antibody. Following a washing step, the amount of bound labeled antigen is measured, providing an inverse relationship between the signal and the concentration of antigen in the sample. Competitive ELISA is particularly useful for studying small molecules that may be difficult to directly conjugate to an enzyme.

ELISA's Reach: From Diagnostics to Research. The applications of ELISA are as vast as they are impressive. Let's delve into some key areas where ELISA plays a vital role:

Unveiling the Mysteries of Disease: Diagnostics: ELISA is a cornerstone of diagnosing infectious diseases like HIV, Hepatitis, and Lyme disease. It detects antibodies produced by the body in response to the invading pathogen, providing valuable information for early detection and treatment. Monitoring Autoimmune Diseases: ELISA helps monitor autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus by measuring specific antibodies associated with these conditions. Cancer Screening: Certain cancers can be detected by identifying tumor markers, proteins elevated in the blood of cancer patients. ELISA assays are being developed to detect these markers for early cancer screening.

Safeguarding Food Quality: Allergen Detection: Food allergies can be life-threatening. ELISA ensures food safety by enabling the detection of allergens like peanuts, gluten, and milk in food products, protecting consumers with allergies. Monitoring Foodborne Pathogens: ELISA can identify harmful bacteria, viruses, and toxins in food, preventing outbreaks of foodborne illnesses.

Environmental Monitoring: Pollutant Detection: ELISA can detect pollutants like pesticides and herbicides in water and soil samples, contributing to environmental protection efforts. Microbial Analysis: This technique can be used to identify and quantify specific microbes in environmental samples, providing insights into ecosystem health.

Research and Development: ELISA plays a crucial role in various research fields: Drug Discovery: It helps researchers assess the effectiveness of new drugs by measuring drug-target interactions and monitoring drug levels in the body. Vaccine Development: ELISA is instrumental in developing vaccines by evaluating immune responses to vaccine candidates. Basic Research: Scientists use ELISA to study various biological processes by detecting and quantifying specific molecules involved in these processes.

Despite its established role, ELISA is evolving alongside technological advancements. New multiplex platforms allow for the simultaneous detection of various targets in a single sample, boosting efficiency in biomarker discovery and disease analysis. Automation streamlines workflows minimizes errors, and increases throughput, making high-throughput screening feasible in drug development and clinical settings. Miniaturization and portable devices enable rapid on-site diagnostics, providing healthcare professionals with real-time data for quicker interventions. Additionally, ongoing research is improving assay sensitivity, reducing background noise, and expanding detection limits, allowing for the identification of trace analytes and early disease biomarkers with greater accuracy than ever before. Integration of ELISA with emerging technologies such as microfluidics, nanotechnology, and artificial intelligence holds promise for enhancing assay performance, scalability, and data analysis capabilities.

These advancements hold promise for even wider applications of ELISA in the future. ELISA has revolutionized our ability to detect and quantify biological molecules. Its versatility, accuracy, and adaptability make it an invaluable tool across various scientific disciplines. As research continues to refine and innovate ELISA techniques, we can expect even more exciting possibilities to emerge in the years to come. ELISA's future is bright, promising to play a pivotal role in unraveling the mysteries of the biological world and improving human health.

Some thoughts on institutional research software management and persistent identification

Pablo de Castro, Open Access Advocacy Librarian at U Strathclyde (with thanks to Alan Morrison, Research Data Management Officer, for the explanation on institutional workflows around research software at Strathclyde Uni)

See also this previous StrathOA blog post by Alan Morrison "Depositing, distributing & citing software and code (A Zenodo – GitHub integration)"

A webinar on "DOIs for research software" will be organised by DataCite on Wed May 24th (in two weeks at the time of writing). This forthcoming event provides a good opportunity to share some thoughts on research software and the attempts to persistently identify it. These thoughts address the way institutions may or may not be specifically supporting research software management, with some specific considerations on persistent identifiers thrown on top. These latter thoughts are driven by one of the questions immediately raised by the event title: why is it called "DOIs for software" instead of "persistent identifiers for software"?

a. On research software management and its support from institutions

1. Research software is a key part of the gradually-developing European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). Moreover, research software is also a critical element when discussing research reproducibility

Slide from presentation “Software – a different kind of research object?” delivered by Neil Chue-Hong (Software Sustainability Institute) within the U Lancaster 3rd Data Conversation linked below (click on the image to access the full deck of slides)

2. While data repositories have also been collecting software for quite some time, this tends to be a researcher-led task. Proactive institutions are definitely able to support their academics for this specific purpose, usually within a wider conversation on Research Data Management – see for instance this inspiring 3rd Data Conversation "Software as data" held by colleagues at Lancaster University on Oct 3rd, 2017.

3. It's not that frequent however for institutions to independently address research software management as a separate area with its specific workflows and resources, but rather as part of the RDM-related work. RDM policies are quite widespread – including a recently issued RDMS policy at Strathclyde – but they tend not to include specific sections devoted to research software management.

4. When discussing general worklines like persistent identifiers for research software, the perspective of the institution is very relevant. Members of an institutional Open Research team are arguably best placed to deliver the sort of advice on Open Research implementation that would ensure that research software is always persistently identified. Critically, institutional Open Research teams are able to provide this advice in a discipline-agnostic way. This places them at the forefront of any specific dissemination activity around PIDs, not just for software but for any other entity too (including datasets but also projects or research equipment and facilities).

5. The intersection between persistent identification and institutional advocacy offers Open Research implementation teams a potential way into a more holistic support for the adequate management of the various research outputs produced by research groups, departments and schools.

b. On persistent identifiers for research software (or for any other entity in the area of "emerging PIDs" such as geosamples, conferences or research equipment and facilities)

A prominent research information management workflow modeller made the following remark during a discussion on PIDs at a recent euroCRIS event: "After extensively discussing the issue within the team, we decided not to implement a PID-issuing feature for all sorts of entities in [specific commercial CRIS solution] – which we could easily do from a technical perspective – because we could add to the confusion by enabling a mechanism to inadvertently create duplicate unique persistent identifiers for those entities".

An interesting example for this risk of duplication is provided by the VasoTracker software developed by researchers at the Universities of Strathclyde and Durham within the 'Optical Cannula' Wellcome-funded project, persistent grant ID https://doi.org/10.35802/202924 (among other acknowledged funding sources). As described on the VasoTracker website, this is a collection of open source tools for studying vascular physiology. The motivation for its development is also explained in the homepage:

This VasoTracker software not having been deposited in the system [Pure] that Strathclyde uses as a data repository, it has no DOI. The reasons why it hasn't been deposited probably come down to (i) the frequent misconception by researchers that datasets only apply to supplementary data underpinning publications and (ii) the probable wish to avoid the need to keep what has quickly become a live software package updated in several places at the same time – which may have led to choosing the website (and its associated github repository) as the default 'containers' for the code.

So would Strathclyde researchers developing code and their institutional Open Research support teams learn any new tricks at a webinar on "DOIs for research software"? Presumably yes, even if it were just on how Zenodo can help with the deposit of code, its maintenance and versioning. Plus perhaps DataCite will soon start supporting the issuing of DOIs for research software via Fabrica like it's already doing for geosamples and might one day do for research instruments and facilities.

There is however one interesting aspect regarding this VasoTracker software in line with the remark above on the risk of "inadvertently creating duplicates for unique PIDs". VasoTracker already has a PID. It's a RRID and not a DOI, granted (hence the nuanced title for the DataCite webinar?) but still a persistent identifier. How this RRID: SCR_017233 came to be assigned is not easy to tell. It's highly unlikely that this was a result of the outreach effort from the researchers involved in its development – it looks rather as if it had been automatically identified by some algorithm searching all across the Internet, including all github repositories.

In fact, AI-driven PID cross-linking routines could quite quickly get the PID Graph displayed that we are so painstakingly building these days. The SciCrunch portal that hosts all these RRIDs is in fact able to crawl the references to a specific 'identified entity' (a software package in this case, but also a research instrument or facility or an antibody) in the published research literature (with the caveat that it needs to be available Open Access, otherwise even the super-clever modern algorithm will crash into the old-fashioned profit-driven paywalls).

The SciCrunch identification of the research publications that cite this RRID-tagged piece of software is not perfect, or not yet: the list on the RRID webpage only includes two of the seven references shown on the VasoTracker webpage (as identified by the software creators themselves). The fact that these references appear at all on the very same SciCrunch page where this RRID: SCR_017233 is described is a huge progress anyway and a hint at what we will be able to achieve in the not-so-distant future.

The risks of duplication highlighted by the research information management colleague at the euroCRIS meeting should however be kept in mind during the process of expanding the DOI coverage. While duplication is not necessarily an issue per se, it would make sense for the different PID initiatives to enable some (reasonably simple) mechanism to map duplicate entries to each other.

I actually know fics about this! Not about her being Domino's general though I would HAPPILY read that fic, but Jocasta Jones and the Librarian Clones turns out to have been partially inspired by this post (she ends up with a squad and they are on their way to becoming excellent librarians!!) and General Jocasta is in a similar vein where basically Obi-Wan gets put in charge of organizing the war and goes to the people who spend their lives organizing things aka the librarians for help (this one is complete!). So on the off-chance there's librarians/archivists/museum folks who like Star Wars following me, check them out they're fun!

But in terms of Domino Squad becoming Librarians/Archivists/their favorite assistants:

The Commanders have a Chat populate SOLELY by Commanders and the Captains they invite in and it is as secure as they can make it. Which is pretty damn secure.

And they're well into an informational conversation read gossip session about their latest Jedi shenanigans.

Cody: I found Obi-Wan stress baking. It wouldn't be that wierd if I knew where he got the ingreditates we haven't gone shopping in months?

Bly: that's nothing General Kolar joined us a few days ago and he and Aalya have been competeing over who can flip the most tanks in a battle

Rex: Hah that's nothing!

CT-1409: it really is.

Wolffe: whom the fuck?

CT-1409: It was Crafts' Day yesterday. 25 Jedi cadets who are still working on their Force levetating.

Rex: Who are you and how did you get into this chat?

CT-1409: With paint. Apparently glitter has been banned from the Archives for the past 147 years due to The Glitter Incident, its use by jedi cadets is restricted to particular rooms in the temple. It was wonderful. It was also Very Messy.

COdy: Rex, Keelie, who is this?

Rex: You think all CTs know each other Commander? Really??

CT-1409: Truely sir

Fox: Echo.

CT-1409: yes sir!

Fox: Echo what are you doing in our chat?

CT-1409: SIr Sargent Byte said I should work on the offensive side of cyber security sir.

Wolffe: Fox who the fuck is this

Fox: hush. So you decided to do this?

CT1409: I have been told to hush sir

Fox: Do I need to come over there you little shit?

CT-1409: Commander Thorn dared me sir.

Fox: I'm beginning to understand why Byte laughed when someone said you're the one with impulse control

CT-1409: That would be Cutup and Hevy sir

Fox: guys this is Echo. He's part of Domino squad they got assigned to the archives a while back, we've run into each other a couple times

Bly: and you decided, on a dare, to hack into our hyper-secured chat to test your slicing skills

CT-2010: He did sir

several people are typing...

What if Shaak Ti, in stopping the Kaminoans from decommissioning clones, asks around if anybody has place and purpose for some non-combatant clones. And Jocasta Nu goes "A bunch of keen young men with eidetic memories? Don't mind if I do" and that is how the Jedi temple library has the most amazing librarians in the galaxy

Okay but - 

Domino fails their final test, but Shaak manages to stop them from being decommissioned or sent to work sanitation by roping Jocasta into snatching them up for that reason. All the members of Domino kind of collectively groan and complain but ship out anyway, and they’re pretty sure it’s all going to be this terrible, boring slog through ancient books with some stuffy librarian Jedi - 

Right up until Jocasta gets word of a cache of Jedi holocrons on a frontline planet, packs up her five new assistants and her lightsaber, and leads them on the most greuling, dangerous, ridiculous mission through active battlefields and Separatist camps that absolutely no one believes happened when they tell their vode later. Which is absolutely fine, because Domino now knows they have the most badass general in the whole galaxy, bar none.
