Immunoassays – Webinars and Online Events

Combining isothermal amplification and lateral flow technologies (IA-LFA) creates a powerful diagnostic tool that provides the sensitivity and specificity of isothermal amplification, with the rapid read out results of lateral flow assays.

Cellulose filters are manufactured from wood pulp or high-quality cotton linters treated to achieve a high alpha cellulose content. Glass microfiber filters, or glass fibers, are manufactured from borosilicate glass. These depth filters combine fast flow rates with high loading capacity and the retention of very fine particles, extending into the sub-micron range, and are used in multiple steps of a lateral-flow assay including the sample pad, blood separator, conjugate release and adsorption pad.

Join our webinar, hosted by Klaus Hochleitner, to take a detailed look at the raw materials, specified parameters and optimal uses for cellulose fiber and glass fiber pads in lateral flow tests.

In this webinar you will:
• Review the purposes of the different pads in lateral flow tests
• Understand the raw materials and specified parameters of cellulose fibers and glass fibers with special focus on thickness
• Review the guidelines for development and assay validation, including block-on-the-fly
• Determine the optimal uses for cellulose fiber and glass fiber pads

This webinar will review how kinetic characterization of biological interactions can guide the selection of best-in-class detector molecules to enhance lateral flow diagnostics and outline the benefits of characterizing and selecting your lateral flow antibodies using SPR technology.

This webinar explores how a next-generation automated ELISA technique can profile the dysregulated host response to COVID-19 in association with viral load in plasma.

This webinar explores a highly sensitive, automated assay workflow to provide high-quality results for low-abundance biomarkers in serum, plasma and cerebrospinal fluid.

Join our webinar, hosted by Klaus Hochleitner, to discuss key considerations for lateral flow test development and optimization and troubleshooting techniques for different samples, tests and antibodies.

The nitrocellulose membrane (NC) is the heart of a lateral flow assay. It is where the target and control molecules are captured and where the test results are read.
Join our webinar, hosted by Klaus Hochleitner, to take a deep dive into nitrocellulose membranes including the raw material, structure manufacturing process and capillary flow time and how these affect your lateral flow assays.
Klaus will also cover the effect of surfactants on protein binding and membrane properties and how to deal with unspecific binding of proteins to nitrocellulose membranes.

Speaking at Cell & Gene Therapy 2023,Tracy Zhao from ACROBiosystems, presented their talk on products and services across cell therapy research and development.

Speaking at Cell and Gene Therapy 2023, Habib Malik from Bio-Techne, presented their talk on reproducible and easy-to-use immunoassay platforms.

Off-the-shelf generic and commercial Chinese hamster ovaries (CHO) host cell proteins (HCP) ELISAs are commonly used to quantitate HCP in early process development. However, it’s challenging to find and choose a generic ELISA suited to a process.
