The invention discloses an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay kit used for detecting the content of heavy metal copper ions in a sample. The kit includes a coat antigen coated enzyme label plate, an enzyme marker, a copper ion chelate specific monoclonal antibody or polyclonal antibody, a copper ion chelate standard solution, a substrate color development solution, a terminating solution, a lotion, and a diluted chelating agent EDTA. The enzyme linked immunosorbent assay kit used for copper ion detection has the advantages of: (1) strong specificity, high sensitivity, a lowest detection limit of 0.42 microgram/L, and a detection range of 2.83-456.04 microgram/L; (2) simplicity, rapidity, and strong timeliness; (3) vivid, visual and accurate result display; and (4) low cost, wide application range, convenient popularization, on-site supervision and suitability for screening a large number of samples.
