ELISA Service

Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbant Assay (ELISA) is a biochemical technique used mainly in immunology to detect the presence of an antibody or an antigen in a sample. In simple terms, in an ELISA an unknown amount of antigen is affixed to a surface, and then a specific antibody is washed over the surface so that it can bind to the antigen. This antibody is linked to an enzyme, and in the final step a substance is added that the enzyme can convert to some detectable signal.

ProSci has performed thousands of ELISA assays to determine antibody titer. For analytical determinations using ELISA techniques, please contact us at abservices@prosci-inc.com, or call 1-888-513-9525.

IHC Service

ProSci offers cost effective immunohistochemistry service (IHC service) and immunocytochemistry service (ICC service) for pharmaceutical, biotechnology and academic research institutes employing different methods of detection (fluorescence, alkaline phosphatase and peroxidase) on cells, paraffin and frozen tissue sections. Sections or arrays for IHC service can be provided by either the client or ProSci. Assays are routinely run by highly trained scientists with more than 15 years of experience in immunochemistry assay development and microscopic cell/tissue imaging analysis. Clients can use protocols developed by ProSci or propose their own methods for IHC Service. In addition to IHC service and ICC service, a HE staining service is also available upon request. As a routine matter, complex cases are reported with annotated digitally acquired image, incorporated into the histopathology report.
