Webinar:  Identifying and Removing False Positives in Immunoassays


Now available on-demand!
This webinar will share insights on immunoassay development and performance.  Identifying and avoiding false positives in your immunoassay experiments is crucial for good quality data.


WEBINAR TOPIC


Immunoassays are commonly used to quantify biomarkers in complex sample matrices. In order to do this accurately, immunoassays need to be developed to control for various factors present in these matrices. When not controlled for, assays can display false positives, false negatives, or under-report values due to interference. R&D Systems has more than 30 years of experience developing and optimizing immunoassays to control for these factors. In this webinar, our scientists demonstrate how we identify and control for matrix effects in Quantikine® ELISAs and Luminex® Assays.
