Available Multiplex Assays
R&D Systems offers two bead-based multiplex immunoassay options utilizing Luminex® xMAP® microparticle technology- Discovery Luminex Assays and High Performance Luminex Assays. Our Luminex Assays are intended to help you tailor assay selection to your individual research needs.
Design the multiplexing assay you need for your preliminary or discovery investigations with the R&D Systems Luminex Discovery assays. These assays are optimized to simultaneously analyze a wide variety and large number of analytes. Next, take your research to the next level by customizing one of the Luminex High Performance panels to get accurate and precise Luminex assays which deliver near single-analyte ELISA performance.

How Does A Luminex Assay Work?
Luminex multiplex assays utilize color-coded superparamagnetic beads coated with analyte-specific antibodies. Beads recognizing different target analytes are mixed together and incubated with the sample. Captured analytes are subsequently detected using a cocktail of biotinylated detection antibodies and a streptavidin-phycoerythrin conjugate.
