Four essentials of immunoassay quality
14 Sept 2026Reliable immunoassay data depends on more than sensitivity. This guide looks at four key measures of assay quality — recovery, linearity, specificity, and consistency — and how they support accurate, reproducible biomarker measurement. It also explores how R&D Systems™ by Bio-Techne assesses factors such as matrix effects, cross-reactivity, dilutional performance, and lot-to-lot reproducibility across ELISA, Luminex®, and Simple Plex™ assays.
The guide includes comparative performance data and practical examples covering recovery in complex matrices, dilutional linearity, specificity testing, and long-term assay consistency.
