Scheduled deliveries and worldwide logistics minimize expense and risk, ensuring your beads are in the right place, at the right time. Inventory management provides batch and shelf life control.
Flexibility Custom quality and supply agreements. Small to multikilogram batch sizes.
Quality Beads with demonstrated performance, manufactured reproducibly, to a robust process in an ISO 9001 facility.
Expertise Access to 40 years' experience in the manufacturing and development of innovative, high-technology products.
Agilent engaged a contract research organization to conduct a non-clinical performance study of particle performance using a commercially available i-PTH assay kit.
The kit is designed to measure the amount of i-PTH present in a sample; reference i-PTH was used in this study.
The study measured the fluorescence output of acridinium ester in a direct sandwich chemiluminescent assay, using an automated immunoanalyzer platform. The assay (performed in cuvette) comprised a biotinylated antihuman PTH antibody prebound to streptavidin coated beads. These were mixed with reference i-PTH sample in the presence of antihuman PTH antibody labeled with acridinium ester.
The assay used a constant amount of the antihuman PTH antibody labeled with acridinium ester and then varied different parameters as follows: - amount of magnetic beads (25 - 100 µg beads/cuvette)- amount of reference i-PTH (dose of 0-2400 pg/mL)- magnetic beads: LodeStar Streptavidin or Alternative 2.7 µm bead
