To dilute or not to dilute biological samples? And if yes, how much? That's the question!

Following our post on whether samples should be pooled or not when performing studies for Biomarker discovery,

Back to dilution of samples. After our post on whether samples should be diluted or not, let's discuss today about how much they should be diluted.

Case # 1 - ELISA or simplex assays

Most ELISA manufacturers

See human cells glow with green fluorescent protein in this time-lapse video. These images were captured over 20 hours via Lumascope 620.

High Definition

A wide range of in vitro models are used in preclinical drug testing for the investigation of ADME-Tox (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion and oxicity) properties of New Chemical Entities

In a recent video posted on "Cambridge University's YouTube channel", Professor Gillian Griffiths and co-workers prove how the Life Science Community can benefit from modern and innovative cell 

ELISAs are widely used in biomarker-related studies, especially when a high number of samples is involved, and only a few biomarkers need to be quantified. That said, incubations can be somehow cumbersome,

The transition from non-invasive phenotype to invasive phenotype of tumor cells marks the switch from a benign tumor to a more malignant form of cancer. Understanding the mechanisms underlying this hallmark

For years, we already knew that a lot

Lipodystrophies are disorders characterized by complete or selective loss of adipose tissue from various regions of the body. They might lead to severe metabolic disorders. The development of reliable

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is important in many biological processes such as wound repair, tissue hydration and inflammation. HA is also a potential biomarker for diseases such as osteoarthritis, liver cirrhosis

Gene expression is regulated by different mechanisms. One of them is the binding of Transcription

Corticosterone is a glucocorticoid secreted by the cortex of the adrenal gland in response to stimulation by adrenocorticotropic hormone. Corticosterone is a major indicator of stress in non-human mammals.
