Description
The Luminex® 200™ detects up to 100 protein or nucleic acid analytes from a single aliquot of sample in a single reaction well, enabling you to generate more data while saving sample, time, and reagents. With more than 12,000 units sold globally to date, the Luminex 100/200 is the established standard in multiplexing instrumentation.
The xMAP® multiplexing platform is composed of an instrument and associated reagents:
- The Luminex 200 instrument is based on the principles of flow cytometry, which integrates key xMAP detection components such as lasers, optics, fluidics, and high-speed digital signal processors.
- xMAP microspheres are a family of fluorescently dyed carboxylated polystyrene microspheres that act as both the surface for the solution phase assay and the spectral identifier that the instrument detects. The open architecture of xMAP Technology enables users to build custom multiplex assays or select from a broad menu commercially available kits.
Features: - Dynamic Range: 3.5 logs.
- Hardware: Flow Cytometry based
- xMAP Reagent Compatibility: Magnetic and nonmagnetic microspheres
