Accusphere Services
Accuspheres are small freeze-dried spheres that stabilize biomolecules and simplify immunoassay workflows. The spheres can be used to reduce the assay turnaround time of any immunoassay. Standard spheres have a size of 50μl (approximately 4.7 mm diameter) and fit exactly in a single well of a microtiter plate.
Accuspheres are formed by combining a suitable matrix with the component of interest. This solution (minimal of 50 μl) is dropped into liquid nitrogen followed by a freeze-drying process, which forms the stable sphere.
Accusphere advantages:
- Stabilization of your biomolecule
- Reduction assay turnaround time (e.g. ELISA)
- Ease of handling
- Less incubation steps
- Thermal protective characteristics
