Resource Description
-
"Luminex xMAP technology is built on proven, existing technology-flow cytometry, microspheres, lasers, digital signal processing and traditional chemistry-that have been combined in a unique way. Featuring a flexible, open-architecture design, xMAP technology can be configured to perform a wide variety of bioassays quickly, cost-effectively and accurately.
Luminex color-codes tiny beads, called microspheres has 100 distinct sets. Each bead set can be coated with a reagent specific to a particular bioassay, allowing the capture and detection of specific analytes from a sample. Within the Luminex compact analyzer, lasers excite the internal dyes that identify each microsphere particle and any reporter dye captured during the assay. Many readings are made on each bead set, further validating the results."
