DETECTION OF ANTIVIRAL ANTIBODIES IN SERUM USING AN ELISA TECHNIQUE
Practical Report
This practical should be written up as a ‘traditional’ practical report including an introduction, methods, results and discussion. The report should be relatively brief, report the results in a suitable format and the discussion etc. should focus on the ‘mechanistic’ aspects of performing the ELISA. This report should then be followed by a more in-depth interpretation of the results in conjunction with the case studies of the four patients
Interpretation/ Case studies
The results obtained and recorded above should now be considered in the context of the four sets of patient history on the following pages. In each case you are required to provide a preliminary diagnosis and assess the patient’s healthcare requirements including any further tests required to confirm diagnosis, appropriate treatment options and ‘life-style’ advice that might be dispensed.
