MSD utilizes electrochemiluminescence to detect binding events on patterned arrays. There are no other technologies that enable multiplexed measurement using electrochemiluminescence for detection. And there are no other suppliers that provide an electrochemiluminescence detection system that is not reliant on beads or flow cells. The MSD® assay platform is unique in its method for detection as outlined below:
• Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) Detection - MSD-s ECL detection utilizes proprietary SULFO-TAG™ labels that emit light upon electrochemical stimulation initiated at the electrode surfaces of MULTI-ARRAY® and MULTI-SPOT® microplates through biomolecular interactions between the analyte and labeled reporter at the surface.
• Sample Throughput - The SECTOR® S 600MM instrument can read plates in 1 to 1.5 minutes regardless of the multiplexing level. As an illustrative example, the S 600MM instrument can read approximately 50 96-well, 10-s...
