Conclusion 1. Explain why antibodies allow scientists to target and identify specific disease agents. Specific antibodies are linked to specific antigens. Scientists can track whether or not a person has a disease through the antibodies present in the body. 2. Why is the secondary antibody used in an ELISA test conjugated with an enzyme? What happens when this enzyme meets up with its substrate? So the substrate would turn a detectable form. It catalyzes so the antibody
