Continuous assays are most convenient, with one assay giving the rate of reaction with no further work necessary. There are many different types of continuous assays.
Discontinuous assays are when samples are taken from an enzyme reaction at intervals and the amount of product production or substrate consumption is measured in these samples.
With regard to immunological assays involving antigens, this could involve continuous production of antibodies against antigen, or discontinuous production measured at intervals.
