New Bead Array Technology

By Biotechdaily staff writers
Posted on 11 Jul 2005
A new immunoassay has been developed for the simultaneous detection of six antibodies to different extractable nuclear antigens (ENA). More...
The immunoassay has been cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The ENA IgG BeadChip test system of BioArray Solutions, Ltd. (Warren, NJ, USA), is for use on the company's Array Imaging system (AIS 400) and utilizes the company's proprietary BeadChip format to simultaneously detect multiple analytes of interest on a tiny silicon chip holding a planar array of color-encoded microparticles. The AIS 400 fully automates image acquisition and integrated analysis to rapidly generate assay results.

"Receiving FDA clearance for this test system represents an important milestone for BioArray Solutions,” observed Michael Seul, Ph.D., president of BioArray Solutions. "Additional products for protein as well as DNA analysis, currently under development, also use the AIS 400 and BeadChip format, offering clinical laboratories the benefit of a universal test platform that supports a diverse menu of applications to enhance laboratory capabilities and productivity.”

BioArray Solutions delivers proprietary BeadChip assay kits for application in immunohematology, transplantation, genetic testing, and other areas requiring the determination of sets of DNA and protein markers.

The platform combines broad-range amplification using conserved regions of the 16S and 23S rRNA genes with species-specific CRISPR recognition. Fluorescence-coded CRISPR droplets are paired with sample droplets containing amplified products, enabling multiplexed target recognition and signal decoding (Image Credit: Yiwen Yang, Jingsong Xu, Dakang Xu)

Nanodroplet CRISPR Technology Supports Rapid, Multiplexed Mycobacterial Identification

Mycobacterial infections are difficult to diagnose because closely related species can have different clinical and therapeutic implications. Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are increasingly recognized... Read more
