A New Method for Measuring
Correlates of Protection

Investigators have proven the effectiveness of using fluorescent targets in phagocytic assays instead of live infectious agents. FlowApps enhances those methods with a multiplexed cytometric approach by:

• Detecting functional antibodies with differentially labeled fluorescent targets
• Detecting antibody panels for multiple serotypes in a single assay
• Increasing throughput using automation

Speed and Other Benefits

Flow Applications’ approach yields reproducible results similar to those obtained by first generation killing assays by Steiner and Nahm, but at a much higher throughput. With autoloaders, batch analysis, and curve-fitting software, multiplexing technologies deliver even faster results – while enabling vaccine researchers and developers to:

• Accelerate phagocytic assays up to 20 times while reducing serum
  and reagent use by up to 75%
• Eliminate biohazards and technical difficulties associated with live bacteria
• Reduce inter- and intra-laboratory variability with established
  performance parameters
