MILLIPLEX® Kit Verification and Quality Assurance Criteria
We carefully develop and verify every MILLIPLEX® kit and evaluate performance criteria including cross-reactivity, sensitivity, specificity, dilution linearity, kit stability and sample behavior (e.g. detectability and stability). We write the protocol with assay performance and your workflow in mind, making it easy to find the information you need.Each MILLIPLEX® kit includes all necessary reagents to prepare the assay to read on your Luminex® instrument, just add your sample and water:
MILLIPLEX® cell signaling kits have a different format to support the use of cell lysate samples.

How to Decide Which MILLIPLEX® Assay Is Best for Your Research
In Method Comparison tests (comparing ELISA and MILLIPLEX® assays), while the absolute values are not exactly the same, the results do correlate. Hence when switching from one assay method to another, a correction factor may be used when comparing with past data. In most situations the dynamic range and the sensitivity of the assay may be better with the MILLIPLEX® kits.Questions? Visit our MILLPLEX® Frequently Asked Questions page. If you have a specific question, or one we did not answer, please contact our Technical Support Team directly.

Multiplex Customer Testimonial
What are researchers saying about MILLIPLEX® Quality?
“I have used Merck MILLIPLEX® kits for the past four years. Initially I started using these kits to multiplex a specific set of markers, but given their reliability, consistency, and ease of use, I have transitioned all my experiments away from traditional ELISAs. Beyond just being a great product, Merck's customer and technical support is at the top of the industry. The combination of superior product with award-winning support has extended the capabilities of my research, allowing me to answer new novel research questions. I consider MILLIPLEX® kits an important component of my research toolbox.”Brian McFarlin, PhD, FACSM, University of North Texas, Denton, Texas
