What is bio-plex assay?

Bio-Plex Multiplex Immunoassays allow you to simultaneously quantify up to 500 proteins, peptides, and nucleic acid targets in a single 12.5 µl sample. Assays for over 450 biologically relevant targets are available as ready-to-use premixed multiplex panels and singleplex sets or in custom-mixed panels.

How does a BioPlex work?

The Bio-Plex® system utilizes xMAP technology to permit the multiplexing of up to 100 different analytes. Rather than a flat surface, Bio-Plex®assays make use of differentially detectable bead sets as a substrate capturing analytes in solution and employs fluorescent methods for detection.

What is Luminex assay?

A Luminex assay is a type of immunoassay that precisely measures multiple analytes in one sample. The Luminex® xMAP® technology is a bead-based immunoassay that allows for multiplex detection of up to 100 analytes simultaneously.

What is a bio-Plex 200?

The Bio-Plex 200 is an automated immunoassay multiplex array system that provides a wide range of biomarker assessments, including cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, soluble receptors, hormones, and gene expression analyses.

What does Bio Rad do?

What is xMAP technology?

xMAP® – The World’s Most Used Multiplexing Technology xMAP® Technology allows users to perform a wide range of protein- and nucleic acid-based multiplex assays, which can simultaneously detect up to 500 targets in a single run.

What do you mean by assay?

An assay is a process of analyzing a substance to determine its composition or quality. The term is often used in the mining industry to refer to tests of ore or minerals. The term assay is also used in the environmental, chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Assaying is also important in futures markets.
