The Path To High-Quality Immunoassay Reagents

For over 40 yr, immunoassays have been used by hospitals, laboratories, and researchers to rapidly diagnose a wide variety of health, disease, and drug treatment conditions. Information gained by these tests has helped to identify pre-symptomatic disease and improve therapeutic options for patients. In life science research, immunoassays have been used to pinpoint hits, quantitate protein expression levels and sample concentration, and unravel complex molecular interactions to advance biological study, while in industry, they have been used to detect contaminants in our food and water. These quick and accurate tests fall within the broader category of methods frequently described as “binding assays”.
