Hello and welcome to HCM,
The ELISA test is done to detect antibodies in patient's serum against antigen of a particular infectious agent.
The ELISA has been done to detect antibodies against the infectious agent.
The result is .03 and it means that the test is negative.
The range for negative test is given as less .9.
This shows that you are suffering from infection for which the test was done.

Thanks and take care
