TRIDOT is an rapid antibody test.Slightly diffreent from ELISA but it is enough for diagnostics

in this the dr says elisia is better then tridot
The NDTV thing is just a opinion of the doctor the same quetion has been answerd by more reputable Dr from the body (second link)
Anyway the stedy i refered is recently done and published in reputed journal and compaired against 4 th genaratoin ELISA and in INDIA (more suitable for you).
So belive it is equalent to ELISA Dont worry.
