Bio plex 200 luminex array reader

Manufactured by Bio-Rad

The Bio-Plex™ 200 Luminex array reader is a multiplex detection system that allows for the simultaneous quantification of multiple analytes in a single sample. The core function of this equipment is to detect and measure the concentration of various proteins, cytokines, and other biomolecules using bead-based multiplex assays.

Multiplexed Cytokine Profiling

IL1-β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TNF-α, and IFN-γ were measured using two multiplexed immunometric assay panels for human cytokines (Luminex® xMAP®, R&D Systems®, R&DSystemsTM, Minneapolis, MN). The antibody-conjugated beads are allowed to react with the sample and a secondary detection antibody to form a capture sandwich immunoassay. After the assay was completed, the assay solution is drawn into the Bio-Plex™ 200 Luminex array reader (BioRAD, Hercules, CA) to quantify the analytes.

Multiplex Immunoassay for Cytokines and Receptors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We transported serum and lavage samples to the lab within 2 h of collection. We centrifuged the fluid sample and then subaliquoted the supernatant and serum into microtubes.
The assays used in this study were two multiplexed immunometric assay panels (Luminex platform) for cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TNF-α and IFN-γ) and for soluble receptors (sIL-2R, sIL-6R, sTNFR2 and sCD14) (R&D Systems). The Luminex xMAP system uses spectrally addressed bead sets, each of which is conjugated with a different capture monoclonal antibody specific for a given target molecule. The antibody-conjugated beads react with the sample and a secondary detection antibody to form a capture sandwich immunoassay. After completion of the assay, the Bio-Plex 200 Luminex array reader (BioRad) quantifies the amount of each analyte in the assay solution. The intraassay variations were b12%. The interassay coefficients of variance were the following: 19.95 (IL-6), 9.32 (IL-8), 27.28 (IL-10), 17.81 (TNF-α), 25.69 (IFN-γ), 25.26 (IL-1β), 6.86 (CD14), 4.88 (TNF), 3.73 (IL-6) and 7.96 (IL-2). Reporting of the cytokines was in pg/ml.

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.
