Luminex xmap based immunoassays

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in Canada

Luminex xMAP-based immunoassays are a multiplex platform that uses color-coded magnetic microspheres to analyze multiple analytes simultaneously in a single sample. The technology allows for the detection and quantification of proteins, peptides, and other biomolecules.

Glucose, total NEFA, and TG were measured as previously described (29 (link)). Plasma C-peptide, insulin, and leptin were measured using Luminex xMAP-based immunoassays (Millipore, Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada). HOMA of IR (HOMA-IR) was also calculated as an alternative index of IR as fasting plasma insulin (units/L) × fasting plasma glucose (mmol/L)/22.5. Insulin secretion rate (ISR) was determined via deconvolution of plasma C-peptide levels with standard two-compartmental kinetic parameters (30 (link)). The disposition index (DI), an index of β-cell function, was determined by the product of the postprandial AUC, ISR/AUC glucose, and Matsuda index (25 (link),31 (link)).

Glucose, total NEFA, and TG were measured as described.126 (link) Plasma adiponectin, insulin, and leptin were measured using Luminex xMAP-based immunoassays (Millipore, Etobicoke, ON, Canada). The Matsuda index was calculated as previously described.127 (link) Homeostasis model assessment of IR (HOMA-IR) was also calculated as an alternative index of insulin resistance as fasting plasma insulin (U/L) × fasting plasma glucose (mmol/L)/22.5. Fasting and postprandial AT insulin resistance (ADIPO-IR) were computed as plasma insulin (pmol/L) × plasma NEFA (mmol/L) at the fasting state and at 120 min, respectively.16 (link),17 (link) Plasma appearance rates of palmitate (Rapalmitate) and total NEFA (RaNEFA) were calculated with the Steele’s non-steady-state equations128 (link) as previously described.4 (link),95 (link) Adipose Tissue Insulin Resistance Index (ATIRI) was calculated as the reduction in the RaNEFA divided by change in plasma insulin from 0 to 120 min.15 (link)

Glucose, insulin, total NEFA TG, plasma cortisol, TSH, free T3 and free T4 were measured using specific radioimmunoassays and colorimetric assays14 (link)36 (link). Plasma C-peptide, GIP, total GLP-1, glucagon, insulin and leptin and PYY were measured using Luminex xMAP-based immunoassays (Millipore, Etobicoke, ON, Canada). ACTH, GH, adiponectin and acylated ghrelin were measured by ELISA (Alpco, Salem, NH, USA). Individual plasma NEFA (palmitate, linoleate, oleate), [U-13C]palmitate enrichment, [7,7,8,8-2H4]palmitate enrichment and [1,1,2,3,3-2H]glycerol enrichment were measured by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry36 (link). [3-3H]-glucose specific activity was determined by liquid scintillation spectrometry35 (link).

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.
