The Enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot (
ELISPOT) assay is a common method for monitoring immune responses in
humans and animals. It was developed by Cecil Czerkinsky in 1983. [1] The
ELISPOT assay is based on, and was developed from a modified version of the ELISA immunoassay.
ELISPOT assays were originally developed to enumerate B cells secreting antigen-specific antibodies, and have subsequently been adapted for various tasks, especially the identification and enumeration of cytokine-producing cells at the single cell level.
