Antibody Human MMP Array 1

Catalog Number:

QAH-MMP-1

I am investigating the effects of cigarette smoking on osteoarthritis in porcine tissue explant culture. I wanted to evaluate the changes in MMP production when tissue was exposed to smoking conditions. This kit was shipped very quickly and came with detailed instructions and troubleshooting tips. RayBiotech provides free scanning services to all glass antibody arrays, and their customer service was very helpful when it came to answering technical questions, shipping samples, and data analysis. I would recommend this product and RayBiotech to anyone looking to perform multiplex ELISAs. I will be purchasing from them again very soon.

Summary

The Good

The best thing about this product is you can collect a lot of information in a short amount of time (multiple MMPs in a single array).

The Bad

A specialized microarray equipment is required for data extraction.

The Bottom Line

This array is of great value, providing quantitative results on multiple MMPs in a relatively short amount of time and for a good price.
