Immunological Test Service

Immunological test method is valuable and popular for pharmacokinetics analysis due to its high sensitivity and specificity for the analyte in complex system. This method is used to measure the quality attribute of the biological drug basically depending on the interaction between the antibody and antigen. Generally, immunological test have higher precision and shorter time than traditional biological assay (cell based and animals).

Creative Proteomics offers several types of immunological test services:

Immunological test services used in biopharmaceutical pharmacokinetics

MethodAdvantagesDisadvantages
ELISA
  • High sensitivity
  • Wide dynamic range
  • High throughput
  • Low cost
  • Multistage process highly dependent on proper execution   of each stage
  • Wash steps add tine and often biohazardous waste
  • Reagent labeling required
RIA
  • Binding occurs in native conformation
  • Low-concentration samples can be analyzed
  • High sensitivity antibody used at limiting dilution
  • Can be plate-based for higher throughput
  • Requires radioactive labeling for detection
  • Shorter half-life of some radioisotopes requires   periodic preparation of the tracer
  • Hazardous waste
Flow cytometry
  • High throughput
  • Highly automated
  • Use limited to cells, particles and samples bound to   beads
  • Sensitive to aggregates and sample matrix
SPR
  • Direct detection of binding
  • Measure affinity precisely, including on and off rates
  • Immobilization can alter binding
  • Regeneration can alter binding
  • Low throughput, output
