Simultaneous analysis of circulating human cytokines using a high-sensitivity cytokine biochip array

摘要

Biochip array technology allows the simultaneous measurement of multiple analytes per sample using a single analytical device. This study shows its applicability to the simultaneous measurement of 12 circulating human cytokines with high-sensitivity detection. This application increases their real-time detectability, maintaining a broad concentration range and without compromising the precision. This methodology represents a very applicable tool in cytokine research when simultaneous determination of minute concentrations can be of interest.
