TechTalk: Automated measurement of BD-Tau and BD-p217-Tau in blood
Friday, October 16 at 15:00 BST | 16:00 CEST | 10:00 EDT | 7:00 PDT
Accurate measurement of brain-derived Tau (BD-Tau) and phosphorylated Tau (BD-p217 Tau) in blood is becoming increasingly important in Alzheimer’s disease and neurodegeneration research. However, established manual workflows can be time-consuming and may introduce variability, making it more difficult to achieve consistent, reproducible results.
In this SelectScience® TechTalk, join Oliver Schmidt, Tecan, to discover how two key neurodegeneration biomarkers, BD-Tau and BD-p217 Tau, can be applied on the TECAN Fluent® 780 instrument. He will explore their role in neurodegeneration research and demonstrate how automated workflows can support more efficient and consistent biomarker measurement.
You will gain practical insight into the application of BD-Tau and BD-p217 Tau assays, the advantages of moving away from manual procedures, and how automation can help streamline blood-based biomarker analysis for Alzheimer’s disease research.

Brain-Derived Tau (BD-Tau) Luminescence Immunoassay
TecanThe Brain-derived Tau (BD-Tau) LUM is a sensitive and accessible research-use only blood assay. Combining a specific antibody targeting brain-derived Tau with upfront immunoprecipitation, BD-Tau LUM offers researchers a powerful and accessible tool to investigate Alzheimer's disease pathology, progression, and biomarker dynamics in plasma.
p217 Tau Luminescence Immunoassay
TecanThe p217 Tau LUM is a sensitive research tool that together with an upfront BD-Tau immunoprecipitation allows for the measurement of p217 BD-Tau in blood samples.
