Microtiter plate assays (MTP)

Immunoassay for research purposes

The microtiter plate is a standard tool in analytical research and diagnostic testing laboratories. SphingoTec’s microtiter plate assays are based on a chemiluminescence sandwich immunoassay technology and allow the measurement of SphingoTec’s proprietary biomarkers Proenkephalin A 119-159 (penKid) and bioactive Adrenomedullin 1-52 (bio-ADM). 

EDTA plasma

sphingotest® microtiter plate assay requires EDTA plasma

High throughput

96 well plate test kit contains enough reagent to run 41 samples in double determinations

1h incubation

Following a 30-minute hands-on time, the assay incubates for 1 hour
