Company:

BioLegend

Product Name:

LEGENDplex™ Human Angiogenesis Panel 1 (10-plex) w/ VbP V02

Catalog Number:

741215

Clone Number:

One of the most cost-effective high-throughput multiplex assays on the market to measure cytokines. It does require some flow cytometry experience compared to an ELISA, but it is simple in execution with a detailed manual.

Additional Notes

We aimed to look at angiogenesis of oesophageal cancer cells exposed to varying acids hence this kit was ideal in terms of its sampling breadth and cost. We collected conditioned cell media (200 uL) which was snap frozen immediately. The washing needs to be done very carefully if using a V bottom plate but we would recommend using the filter plate for increased accuracy and reproducibility.
