Novel method for measuring multiple cytokines from small samples
Published in Medical Devices and Surgical Technology Week, June 20th, 2004
"Commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits are commonly used to assess levels of proinflammatory cytokines in biological samples," scientists in the United States explained. "Most of these kits require sample volumes of at least 50 mcL."
"Thus, in order to examine multiple cytokines, volumes greater than 100 mcL must be collected," noted K.A. O'Connor and colleagues at the University of Colorado. "However, the volume of many biological samples, especially those collected from the central nervous system (i.e., microdialysates, push-pull...
