Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100297603ANALYTE-RELEASING BEADS AND USE THEREOF IN QUANTITATIVE ELISPOT OR FLUORISPOT ASSAY - The present invention relates to a method of quantifying analyte secreted by a cell or released from a drug delivery vehicle, typically by ELISpot or fluorispot assay. Quantification is possible through the use of an analyte-releasing reagent that includes a bead and the analyte releasably bound to the bead, or a container pre-spotted with analyte released from the reagent. The reagent or pre-spotted containers can be used to provide a standard curve for release of the analyte. By detecting analyte secreted by one or more cells or drug released by a drug delivery vehicle, and comparing the detected analyte to the standard curve, it is possible to quantify the amount of analyte released by the one or more cells or drug released by the drug delivery vehicle. Kits and reagents for practicing the methods of the present invention are also disclosed.11-25-2010
