By "yes" I meant standard ELISA test because of the time it took. That is only an assumption though.

Disregard the words before the second comma in my previous comment, I accidentally entered it before revising.

It depends on whether it is a Rapid, Regular ELISA,Sounds like a Rapid to me except those take about 20 minutes.
