New DIAplex multiplexed fluorescent bead-based immunoassay
The Diaclone range of immunology products has been expanded with the launch of the Diaclone DIAplex, a multiplexed fluorescent bead-based immunoassay for the simultaneous quantification of multiple analytes from a single sample by flow cytometry.
Diaclone has over 20 years of expertise in the development and production of high-quality, specific monoclonal antibodies and immunoassays. Diaclone is an established brand of Gen-Probe Incorporated, a global leader in molecular diagnostics.
Utilising bead populations with distinct fluorescence intensities and unique antibody specificities, DIAplex can accurately measure multiple analytes in a single sample with a significantly reduced assay time and sample volume requirement when compared to traditional ELISA techniques. The provided DIAplex Pro software is a simple-to-use tool enabling complete data analysis and sample analyte concentration determination in a matter of minutes after analysis.
DIAplex reagentpanels are available for the identification of Th1, Th2 and Inflammation-associated cytokines, allowing the quantification of multiple human cytokines in serum and culture supernatants by flow cytometry. This cost-effective, versatile system allows the simple, efficient and reliable identification of up to 10 cytokines from small sample volumes, including IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12p70, IL-17A. The reagents are provided as pre-configured panels (DIAplex Complete) providing multiplex cytokine assay sets. Alternatively, detection panels can be self-designed (DIAplex Design) for the investigation of a specific scientific area.
The fully validated Th1 / Th2 / Inflammation DIAplex panels offer a sensitive range of quantification (78 – 5000 pg/mL) and high levels of reproducibility and reliability (mean intra-assay and inter-assay CV <6%), coupled with short incubation times (180 min) and small sample volume requirements (50μL for the single measurement of 10 analytes).
With the benefits of specific, sensitive and reliable measurement of multiple analytes in a single sample, combined with significantly reduced assay times and sample volume requirements, Diaclone DIAplex is the clear choice to fast track your research.
