In a 96-well or 384-well plate format,CellCarta's MSD®assays can measure up to 10 analytes per well simultaneously. MSD® also offers single plex and up to 40 plex formats that can be customized for your specific cytokines and chemokines of interest. All formats enable high-throughput,cost-effective data generation without a proportional increase in sample volume requirements.
"},{"faq_question":"Can MSD® be used in clinical trials? ","faq_answer":"Yes. CellCarta has quantified and characterized assays for use in clinical trials. For example,our proinflammatory MSD®panel has been validated for use as secondary endpoints and is CLIA-certified,enabling deployment in regulated clinical laboratory settings. Multi-analyte MSD assays can also be performed in GLP/GCLP-validated environments to support submission-ready regulatory data packages for clinical development programs.
"},{"faq_question":"What sample types and volumes does MSD® require? ","faq_answer":"CellCarta's Meso Scale Discovery assays are typically designed to run on serum or plasma samples. Multiplexed measurements of up to 10 analytes require as little as 25 µL of sample per well,allowing for the preservation of limited and/or precious clinical samples while generating comprehensive immune profile data from a single measurement.
