Multiplexing techniques often rely on technologies like Luminex xMAP, ELISA, or Mass Spectrometry. These methods use different strategies to simultaneously detect multiple analytes:
Luminex xMAP: Utilizes color-coded beads, each conjugated with a specific antibody to detect different analytes. ELISA: Multiple antibodies are used in a single well to detect various targets. Mass Spectrometry: Allows for the identification and quantification of multiple compounds based on their mass-to-charge ratios.
