In today’s fast-paced research environment, selecting the right biomarker detection platform is crucial for generating reliable, reproducible data. Whether you’re running a small academic lab or managing high-throughput screening in pharma, the Luminex xMAP® family offers flexible, scalable solutions to meet your needs. Here, we spotlight three leading instruments: Luminex 200™, xMAP® INTELLIFLEX®, and xMAP® INTELLIFLEX® DR-SE.
Luminex 200™: Trusted, Versatile Multiplexing
The Luminex 200™ system is a workhorse for low- to mid-range multiplexing, capable of quantifying up to 100 analytes (80 on MagPlex® microspheres) per well in a 96-well plate, using as little as 25 µL of sample. Its user-friendly programming, barcode reader, and dynamic range of ≥3.5 logs make it ideal for rapid, accurate biomarker quantification in a wide range of applications. If you need a reliable, established platform for routine multiplex assays, Luminex 200™ is a proven choice.
Key Features:
- Multiplex up to 100 analytes per well
- Compatible with 96-well plates
- Dynamic range ≥3.5 logs
- User-friendly interface and barcode reader
xMAP® INTELLIFLEX®: Next-Generation Flexibility
The xMAP® INTELLIFLEX® system represents the latest evolution in Luminex technology. Designed for both low- and high-plex applications, it supports up to 500 analytes per sample and runs both 96- and 384-well plates. With an embedded PC, touchscreen interface, and automation-friendly design, INTELLIFLEX® streamlines workflows and reduces the need for manual optical alignment. Its open architecture supports the extensive MILLIPLEX® assay menu and custom solutions, making it a future-proof investment for labs with evolving needs.
