Off-the-Shelf Assays

Immunologix Labs is excited to provide a number of off-the-shelf assays including the ProteinSimple ELLA Neurofilament Light assay, MSD V-PLEX Proinflammatory Panel 1 and MSD V-PLEX Chemokine Panel 1. These assays are supported by a comprehensive analytical performance package designed to meet the needs of varied contexts of use. In addition to delivering impeccable precision, our comprehensive approach aligns biomarker analysis with specific context of use by fully evaluating how these methods perform with endogenous molecules in real samples. This brings a level of confidence to your analysis that cannot be achieved using surrogate molecules and matrix as typically quoted in manufacturer claims.
