Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clinical immunology testing technology, specifically to an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) device for preventing incorrect sample addition. Background Technology

[0002] Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) uses a specific reaction between antigen and antibody to link the analyte to an enzyme, followed by a color reaction between the enzyme and substrate for quantitative determination. The most commonly used carrier is a microplate, and products specifically designed for ELISA assays are also called ELISA plates. The internationally accepted standard plate size is 8×12 with 96 wells, allowing for the simultaneous testing of 96 samples. For easier testing of small numbers of samples, 8- or 12-strand micro-reaction strips are available, which, when placed in an ELISA holder, are the same size as the standard ELISA plate. General kit ELISA holders lack special markings, making it easy to add the wrong or missing samples during clinical practice or demonstrations, leading to inaccurate test results.

[0003] A search revealed that patent document CN207992224U discloses an ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) error-proof sample dispensing device, comprising an ELISA holder plate and a horizontal slide plate. The ELISA holder plate is provided with 96 micro-reaction well fixing grids in an 8×12 grid. The horizontal slide plate includes a horizontal plate and two vertical plates. A vertical plate is fixed to the lower end of both the left and right sides of the horizontal plate. The left and right side walls of the ELISA holder plate are provided with grooves. The inner side of the vertical plates is provided with sliders that match the grooves. The sliders are slidably connected to the grooves. The upper surface of the horizontal plate is provided with 12 marking holes from left to right. Each marking hole corresponds to a sample dispensing well. The 12 marking holes are marked with numbers 1-12 from left to right.

[0004] The above-mentioned patent has the following shortcomings: the device may only be applicable to a specific model of ELISA stand plate. Different skateboards may need to be customized for different specifications or brands of stand plates, which limits its versatility and makes the device relatively inflexible. Therefore, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) error-proof sample addition device is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content
