Bio-Plex Multiplex Assays

Circulation of SARS-CoV-2 in the global population led to the emergence of new variants threatening to undermine vaccine effectiveness. Understanding the immune response and its neutralizing abilities at both the patient level and globally could not only help prevent outbreaks but also mitigate the outcome for future pandemics.

Apolipoproteins bind to lipids to form lipoproteins, which transport lipids throughout the lymphatic and circulatory systems. In addition to cardiovascular disease, apolipoproteins are now being linked to other diseases such as cancer, autoimmunity, and neurodegeneration. Learn more about the different types of apolipoproteins and see how they serve as biomarkers for these diseases.

Biomarker screening can sometimes be like working in a black box. While traditional research tools focus on one protein at a time, Bio-Rad’s new Bio-Plex Pro™ Mouse Chemokine Panel can simultaneously interrogate 33 chemokines and cytokines in a single well. See how you can get more answers with this panel.

See how one study used Bio-Rad’s Bio-Plex Pro Human Cytokine 27-Plex Assay to investigate immune responses to an anti-viral compound in an effort to better understand vaccine efficacy.

Follow the five tips in this article before embarking on your multiplex immunoassay journey to generate accurate, efficient, and biologically relevant results. From help designing experiments to acquiring accurate data, this article has it all.

Multiplex immunoassay development requires a lot of validation and standardization steps. Several factors can influence the performance of these assays. Some factors that need to be considered are mentioned here.

Here is a quick protocol for preparing a serum or plasma sample for multiplex biomarker analysis.

How can we easily identify biomarkers for different immune cell types? This color-coded poster makes identification of mouse lineage biomarkers easy.

Find out why your multiplex assay measurements can differ for serum and plasma samples.
