The video showcases the implementation of snap chip technology for cross-reactivity-free multiplexed sandwich immunoassays. The simple action of snapping two microarray slides, each containing different reagents, ensures reagent transfer without cross-contamination and helps to detect multiple proteins using sandwich immunoassay.
Protocol
All procedures involving sample collection have been performed in accordance with the institute's IRB guidelines. 1. Fabrication and storage of snap chips Single transfer method (Figure 1a) Spot cAb solutions containing 400 µg/mL antibodies and 20% glycerol in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) onto a nitrocellulose (or a functionalized glass) assay slide with an inkjet microarray spotter at a relative humidity of 60% (1.2 nL…
