What are Some Examples of Catalytic Diagnostic Techniques?
1. ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay): Utilizes enzyme-linked antibodies to detect antigens in samples. 2. Lateral Flow Assays: Such as home pregnancy tests, where the presence of a hormone catalyzes a color change. 3. Electrochemical Biosensors: Use enzymes to catalyze reactions that produce electrical signals, which can be measured to determine the concentration of analytes like glucose.
