In the realm of immunoassay development, the choice and optimization of buffer solutions are pivotal for ensuring assay sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility. This webinar aims to delve into the critical role of buffers across various stages of immunoassay development, including, Chemiluminescence Immunoassay (CLIA) and Lateral Flow Assay (LFA). Participants will gain insights into the specific requirements of buffers at different phases of assay development, exploring whether multiple buffers are necessary and the implications of their use in a single assay.
Our session will provide a comprehensive guide on selecting the most suitable buffers for each application while highlighting those that should be avoided due to potential interference with assay components. We will discuss the properties that make certain buffers more effective and provide practical tips for buffer selection to enhance assay performance.
Key learnings from the webinar include:
- Buffer Selection: Criteria for choosing the right buffers for different immunoassay platforms and stages.
- Optimization Tips: Practical advice for buffer optimization to enhance assay sensitivity and specificity.
- Troubleshooting: Strategies for addressing common issues in assay performance due to suboptimal buffering.
This webinar is tailored for professionals and researchers in IVD and Clinical Testing laboratories who are involved in developing Immunoassays Kits and Laboratory Developed Tests (LDT).
Enhance your expertise in buffer optimization, equipping you with the necessary knowledge and tools to refine your assay development processes effectively.
