an
antibody
which has an
enzyme

this enzyme can react with a
substrate
to produce a
coloured
product
this causes the
solution
in the reaction vessel to
change
colour
what happens if there is a
colour change
?

colour change
it demonstrates that the
antigen
or
antibody
of
interest
is present in the sample being tested (eg
