[User Case] A research group at Nagasaki University has developed a method for detecting CJD in living patients.
Established a highly sensitive diagnostic method for detecting prions from patient cerebrospinal fluid samples by introducing the plate reader Infinite 200 PRO.
We introduce a case study on the implementation of Tecan's Infinite 200 series plate reader. A research group at Nagasaki University has established a highly sensitive diagnostic method for detecting prions in cerebrospinal fluid samples from patients suspected of having Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) using Tecan's Infinite 200 series plate reader. This raises expectations for reliable ante-mortem diagnosis. [Contents] - Researching the mechanisms of prions and their properties as infectious agents of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) - Utilizing both monochromator-based and filter-based models of the Infinite - Recently introduced a fourth unit - Strongly wishing to use the plate reader for other research as well For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
