Company:

RayBiotech

Product Name:

Human MIP-1 Alpha ELISA Kit

Catalog Number:

ELH-MIP1a-1

We intended to test several cytokine levels in human serum from a cohort of 100 patients with previous COVID-19 infection. We have had tremendous success with RayBio kits, and these were no exception. Everything you need is included in the kit, and the ELISA plate is pre-coated which makes set up a breeze. I recommend that RayBio returns to providing a full product insert and SOP with their kits like they used to. Now, a small card with a QR code makes you search for the correct kit before finding any instructions. Some of us prefer to do everything on the bench and not run back and forth to a computer. However, this is minor and the actual quality of the kit has not diminished over the years.

Summary

The Good

Attractive packaging, reasonable price, and easy to use.

The Bad

Slow shipping, no SOP included besides QR code.

The Bottom Line

RayBiotech kits are some of the best full package ELISA kits we have encountered. Clearly labeled reagents, consistent results, and generally good after-sale support. Highly recommended.
