Simple Plex Discovery Assays

Simple Plex™ Discovery Assays provide the flexibility you need to explore new biomarkers and accelerate translational research while benefiting from increased reproducibility and automation. Designed for early-stage research and preclinical studies, these assays offer a broad menu of biomarkers, rapid results, and a streamlined workflow to help you generate reliable data faster.

  • Broad analyte coverage – Expand your research with an extensive and growing menu of biomarkers.
  • Fast results in just 90 minutes – Streamline your workflow and get answers quickly.
  • Built-in standard curves – Eliminate the need for manual curve generation and ensure reproducibility.
  • Validated for key sample types – Get reliable data from cell culture supernates, serum, and plasma.
  • Rapid custom assay development – New assay development in a fraction of the time with custom services.

Automated ELISA Platform

Simple Plex Assays run on the automated Ella™ platform, bringing a higher level of precision, minimal training, and increased productivity to your research. Utilizing a unique microfluidic cartridge design, Simple Plex Discovery Assays are fast, hands-free, reproducible, and available for multiplexing up to 4 analytes.
