MACSPlex assays

Multiplex assays for flow cytometry

Multiplex-assay technology for miRNA, exosome, and protein quantification using standard flow cytometers
Bead-based immunoassay following sandwich immunoassay principle, where a soluble analyte is captured between two antibodies
Save time and conserve samples by measuring many analytes at the same time in each sample

MACSPlex assays have been designed for determining concentrations of soluble analytes in a single sample. They are provided as MACSPlex Kits with predefined panels, ranging from 10 to 39 specificities, or as a customizable option called MACSPlex Mix. Each assay provides sufficient reagents for at least 100 tests. They can be performed in a 96-well filter plate, allowing to run 40 samples plus 8 standard curve titrations in duplicate.

In combination with the Express Modes of our MACSQuant® Analyzers, MACSPlex assays are optimized for automated measurement of beads. They simplify flow cytometric analysis via predefined experiment settings as well as acquisition and analysis templates.
