You are warmly invited to attend a seminar hosted by the Flow Cytometry Core Facility together with Mabtech on Tuesday, 18 February at 4:00pm. During this session, Berend Bassleer and Domenico Sauter from Mabtech will present EYRA and EYRAplex, a new bead-based multiplex solution that enables sensitive biomarker analysis with a fluidics-free readout. They will also discuss the possibility of arranging a hands-on demonstration of the instrument at a later date, depending on the level of interest from participants. The presentation will cover: Principles of bead-based multiplexing using EYRAplex assays The seminar is intended for researchers working with cytokines, chemokines, or other soluble biomarkers, as well as anyone interested in multiplex assay technologies and modern immunoassay workflows, particularly those who appreciate the capabilities of Luminex assays but would prefer a solution that spares them the headaches associated with fluidics.
