A collaboration between TTP Labtech and Abcam has been announced for the further development of reagent kits for the quantification of secreted proteins in multiplexed screening assays.
Collaboration
TTP Labtech, designer and developer of automated instrumentation and consumables for life science applications, successfully launched its sol-R coded beads last year and will work with Abcam, innovator in life sciences reagents and tools, to develop assay kits that will enable researchers to deliver data driven decisions.
“Our sol-R coded beads are designed for secreted protein quantification in multiplexed no-wash immunoassay screens. Working with Abcam on the development of the sol-R reagent kits enables us to combine their advanced antibody technology and reagent expertise with our sol-R bead technology to provide convenient off-the-shelf kits,” commented Joby Jenkins, director — product strategy, TTP Labtech. “Since the kits are validated on TTP Labtech’s mirrorball plate-based fluorescent cytometer, repeated wash steps associated with traditional sandwich ELISA’s are no longer necessary, thereby significantly reducing assay times, while delivering data integrity.”
John Baker, Senior Vice President Portfolio and Business Development, at Abcam, said: “The integration of Abcam’s high quality antibody technology with TTP Labtech’s sol-R Reagents will deliver reproducibility, quality and efficiency to life science researchers, accelerating their research. The new kits have been designed for researchers carrying out high-throughput immunoassays including drug discovery in biotech, pharma and contract research organisations.”
