Immunoassays play an indispensable role in scientific research. They facilitate the detection and quantification of specific analytes, enabling in-depth investigations into disease mechanisms, biomarker discovery, and evaluation of the potential of therapeutic interventions.

Sample selection and preparation are of utmost importance, as they have a direct impact on the accuracy, reliability, and integrity of the obtained results.

Properly selecting and preparing samples ensures that they are representative of the population under study and that the analytes of interest are preserved in their native state.

In addition, controlling and mitigating matrix interference is crucial in immunoassays to minimize the influence of sample components that may hinder the accuracy of measurements.

In this episode, hear from immunoassay experts as they guide you through all these areas.

The brain is an immune-privileged organ, meaning it is protected from the entry of pathogens, blood circulating factors, and immune cells by a physical barrier called the blood-brain barrier (BBB).

But pathological events such as ischemia (stroke), trauma (traumatic brain injury), or tumor growth (gliomas and brain metastasis), activate the vascular endothelium, disturb or disrupt the BBB and allow immune cell homing.

In this episode, discover how innate immunity can sustain deleterious effects following brain trauma, and the technological developments enabling longitudinal studies into post-trauma lesion remodeling.

Tissue heterogeneity is a significant challenge when analyzing proteins in tissue samples to identify disease states.

In this episode, explore how combining laser microdissection with mass spectrometry (LCM-MS) on fixed and stained tissues lets you explore the protein networks within pathological features to shed light on their molecular functions.

Using hallmark lesions of lung fibrosis in the honeycomb airways and fibroblastic foci as an example, you'll hear how this technology can detect over 4,900 proteins from tissue volumes as low as 0.005 mm3.

The fundamental cellular mechanisms of internalization and trafficking are crucial to many areas of cell biology, especially the proper function of therapeutic antibodies.

Antibodies intended for use as antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) should specifically bind to target cells and rapidly internalize via endocytosis.
However, the ability to study these processes has historically been limited by the lack of tools that directly monitor the internalization and subsequent catabolism of extracellular material.

In this episode, get a demo of rapid, high-throughput methods to screen for antibody internalization. You will also hear about techniques to directly visualize the internalization of therapeutic antibodies and ADCs in live cells for structure-activity relationship studies.

You will also learn how the insights provided by these approaches have the potential to accelerate biotherapeutic lead generation and development.

Dive into the innovative world of STED microscopy and explore how researchers are pushing the boundaries of super-resolution imaging in this episode of Listen In.

Traditional STED microscopy achieves high resolution by using a doughnut-shaped depletion laser to selectively suppress fluorescence, but multicolor experiments often face challenges such as laser misalignment and dye bleaching.

Explore the game-changing technique of using a single depletion wavelength combined with phasor-based FLIM separation. This method allows scientists to distinguish multiple fluorophores with similar emission spectra but different fluorescent lifetimes, significantly increasing the number of usable spectral channels.

Discover how researchers successfully depleted five fluorochromes across different channels using a single laser and utilized the phasor plot for quick and easy visualization of staining quality and lifetime analysis. This approach not only doubles the number of distinguishable colors in laser scanning microscopy but also simplifies the process, making it accessible to many scientists with minimal training.
