MagPlex® Microspheres
Magnetic microspheres offer improved washing efficiency and the ability to measure up to 500 targets simultaneously
About
Similar to MicroPlex® Microspheres, MagPlex® Microspheres are carboxylated polystyrene microparticles, or “beads,” that have been dyed into spectrally distinct sets, or “regions,” allowing them to be individually identified by an xMAP® instrument. These uniquely coded beads provide a user with an addressable substrate on which to perform multiple bio-analytical reactions in a single well.
There are several advantages to MagPlex® Microspheres over traditional MicroPlex® Microspheres.
MagPlex® Microspheres are magnetic, and with the use of a magnetic separator, they can be separated from solution quickly and easily. This improves bead recovery during handling and wash steps and facilitates assay automation.
Additionally, MagPlex® Microspheres are available in 500 unique regions, enabling the development of assays that can measure up to 500 different analytes in the same well.
These beads are universally compatible with all xMAP® instruments. MagPlex® Microspheres open the door to Luminex’s MAGPIX® instrument, which was designed as a simple and easy-to-use instrument with a smaller footprint.
All microspheres are general-use components for further manufacture of xMAP® bioassays.
MagPlex® Microspheres are available at a concentration of 2.5 million and 12.5 million beads/mL and can be ordered in 1 mL and 4 mL vial sizes. MagPlex® Microspheres are also offered in a variety of custom volumes. Please see the MagPlex® Custom Volume Ordering Guidelines or contact Luminex to inquire about custom volume options.
IMPORTANT: MagPlex® microspheres require the use of xPONENT® software.
