Luminex magnetic bead assay

Manufactured by R&D Systems
Sourced in United Kingdom

The Luminex magnetic bead assay is a multiplex platform that enables the simultaneous measurement of multiple analytes in a single sample. The assay utilizes color-coded magnetic beads coated with capture antibodies specific to different target proteins. The beads are mixed with the sample, and the target proteins bind to their respective capture antibodies. A reporter antibody is then added, forming an antibody sandwich. The beads are then analyzed using a Luminex analyzer, which measures the fluorescent signal generated by the reporter antibody to quantify the concentration of each target protein.

1

Luminex Assay for Cytokine Detection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A Luminex magnetic bead assay was purchased from R&D Systems, Abingdon UK which was able to detect IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and M-CSF. The assay was performed on conditioned media collected from cells treated with cytokines for 24 h according to manufacturer’s instructions to assay protein levels in conditioned media from cytokine-treated MCs. The plate was read using a Merck Millipore Luminex MAGPIX® analyser.

Cytokine and Chemokine Profiling in Tumor Lysates

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total cell lysates were prepared from the powderized tumors as for the RNA extraction but lysed in cold RIPA buffer containing anti-protease cocktail Complete Roche, 1mM sodium orthovanadate, 1mM sodium fluoride. Tumor lysates were vortexed and incubated on ice for 20 min and then centrifuged at 14000 rpm for 15 min. Supernatants were quantified with Bradford method and 10 μg of protein lysates were run for the R&D luminex magnetic bead assay with a custom configuration of 19 cytokines and chemokines (listed on the website as: HGF, TNFA, IL1B, IL1A, IFNG, GCSF, MCSF, EPO, LIX, MDC, KC, MCP-1, RANTES, IL6, Lipocalin2, MIP1A, MIP1B, IGF1, Eotaxin). Quantitation of IL1RA was performed using the ELISA Duo set kit from R&D Systems. Data are expressed as picograms per ml ± SD.

A Luminex magnetic bead assay was purchased from R&D Systems, Abingdon UK, which was able to detect TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8, interferon-γ-inducible protein (IP)-10, IL-10, VEGF, GM-CSF, and M-CSF. The assay was performed according to manufacturer’s instructions to assay protein levels in conditioned media from cytokine-treated podocytes. The plate was read using a Merck Millipore Luminex MAGPIX analyzer.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
