Luminex develops, manufactures and markets innovative biological testing technologies with applications throughout the life science and diagnostic industries. The company’s open-architecture xMAP� and xTAG� technologies enable large numbers of bioassays to be conducted and analyzed quickly, cost-effectively and accurately.
Systems using xMAP/xTAG technology perform discrete bioassays on the surface of color-coded beads known as microspheres, which are then read in a compact analyzer. Using lasers and high-speed digital-signal processors, the analyzer simultaneously identifies the bioassay and measures the results, all in real time. |
