        What is the difference between laboratory (observed) units and international units? Product FAQ

        Answer

        Laboratory units are the actual values obtained from running an assay with a particular protein in an assay in your lab; i.e., the activity (ED50) you observe on your target cells. ‘International' units are consensus values of potency derived from a collaborative NIBSC effort to standardize reported use of proteins. These values are derived from bioassay testing of the same protein by many target cell types/substrains. It is very likely that the ‘laboratory' units you observe and the NIBSC values will not correlate 1:1; e.g., it might take 0.1 - 20 U/mL to see 1 U/mL in your experiment. These are bioassay standards describing potency in bioassay only. The mass values assigned to these are not hard values and use of these for immunoassay standardization is of limited value unless assays calibrated by the NIBSC standard use the same capture and detection antibody clones.

        Which polystyrene microspheres can be used for an agglutination test? Product FAQ

        Answer

        We do not have any formal recommendations to provide. The choice depends upon the mode of detection (by eye or microscopy; colorimetric or fluorescence), the color, and the material to be bound upon the surface of the beads (the appropriate surface modification on the bead for either passive or covalent attachment).
