ELISA Microplate Reader

• Quantification: It converts color-change intensities, fluorescent signals, or luminescent outputs into numerical data (optical density or relative fluorescence units).

• Analysis: It performs both quantitative (calculating exact protein or antibody concentrations using standard curves) and qualitative (positive/negative cutoff) evaluations.

• Infectious Disease Detection: Screening and diagnosing viral and bacterial infections such as HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis (B and C), COVID-19, Lyme disease, and rotavirus.

• Hormone & Endocrine Testing: Measuring levels of insulin, thyroid hormones, and other metabolic markers.

• Cancer Biomarkers: Detecting tumor-associated antigens and markers like Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA).

• Autoimmune & Allergy Testing: Quantifying specific immunoglobulins such as IgE antibodies for allergic responses.

• Drug Discovery: High-throughput screening of chemical compounds and analyzing receptor interactions.

• Vaccine Potency & Immunogenicity: Evaluating antibody titers and monitoring immune responses in clinical trials.

• Bioprocess Quality Control: Quantifying biologic drug concentrations in serum and checking for residual host cell proteins in manufacturing batches.

• Immunology & Cytokine Profiling: Tracking signaling proteins, growth factors, and immune cell activities.

• General Molecular & Protein Assays: Measuring total nucleic acid (DNA/RNA) concentrations, protein quantification (e.g., Bradford or BCA assays), and cell viability tests.

• Enzyme Kinetics: Monitoring the rates and behaviours of enzymatic reactions over time.

• Food Allergen & Contaminant Detection: Screening food products for hidden allergens, toxins, or pathogen residues.

• Water and Environmental Quality: Testing field or municipal samples for pollutants or biological contaminants.

• High-Throughput Capacity: Can rapidly analyze up to 96 (or 384) samples simultaneously.

• Low Sample Volumes: Requires very small sample and reagent volumes (typically 2 to 100 microliters per well).

• Versatility: Supports multiple detection modes—including absorbance, fluorescence intensity, and luminescence—depending on the instrument configuration.
