Description
The Multiplex ELISA Kit For Human Malaria (5-Plex) is a robust and fully quantitative chemiluminescent assay for the concurrent surveillance of four malaria biomarkers. The assay simultaneously measures HRP2, LDH-Pan, LDH-Pv, LDH-Pf, and one host biomarker, CRP. The monitoring of subclinical Malaria infections and prevalence of HRP2-deletions is achieved by the coupling of the most sensitive commercially available HPR2 assay with LDH detection. Validated protocols for whole blood samples are in place, with protocols for dry blood spots in development.Each kit contains a 96-well plate and all other reagents necessary to perform the assay. The individual wells of the plate are precisely and reproducibly arrayed with each of the five biomarkers for accurate results.In 3.5 hours, each kit will report quantities of 80 samples for the four Malaria biomarkers and one host biomarker CRP. This is achieved while only using 15 µl of whole blood per sample
