Bio-Plex Manager Software is a powerful, intuitive tool used to generate and analyze xMap data. In this webinar you will:

• Learn how to create an assay protocol
• Learn how to acquire data
• Understand basic software parameters
• Learn about general functionality and navigation
• Master optimization of standard curves and export data for further analysis

Since the first cytokine was identified over 60 years ago, a lot has been done to better understand these molecules. The use of multiplex immunoassays is one such way, though they aren’t considered quite as mainstream yet. Learn about how the SMARTS approach can be used to better align user experience to the performance characteristics of these multiplex assays and hopefully transition them to a more mainstream role in research.

Multiplex immunoassays are an extremely powerful tool for protein detection and quantitation. In this webinar, get a general overview of multiplex immunoassay technology and tips on setting up experiments to optimize your results.

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.

Here are some general tips to make your multiplex immunoassay experiments successful.

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

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

Mice are an optimal model organism for human cancer studies. However, when experiments involve a human xenograft in a mouse host, cross-reactivity presents a major concern in measuring biomarkers. This technical report evaluates 14 Bio-Plex Pro Human Cancer Biomarker Assays for cross reactivity to mouse proteins and discusses the resulting data.
