Cytokine Multiplex Assay Kits allow researchers to simultaneously detect the levels of multiple cytokines in a single sample. This is particularly useful for identifying the wide array of changes that can be associated with different pathological conditions. For multianalyte cytokine detection, we offer membrane-based Proteome Profiler Cytokine Antibody Arrays, bead-based Luminex® Assays, and Simple Plex automated ELISAs. For our antibody arrays, we offer human, mouse, or rat XL Cytokine Antibody Arrays that detect 105, 111, or 79 analytes respectively, including interleukins, interferons, chemokines, and members of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily. Our standard Luminex Assays for human, mouse, rat, porcine, and non-human primate (NHP) may also be used to detect many of these same analytes. With a menu of more than 490 analytes to select from, multiplexing with our Luminex assays provides the ability to simultaneously assess up to 50 analytes using magnetic microparticles. Experience consistent biomarker detection and ultra-sensitive results in less than 90 minutes with Ella, our automated benchtop ELISA. Simple Plex offers an extensive selection of over 250 fully validated assays essential to complete your cytokine research. Whether you want a stocked panel, ready to ship in just 2 days, a custom panel with up to 8 assays specific to your research, or a single assay cartridge for up to 72 samples ran simultaneously, Simple Plex has the solution to your research needs.

Product Features
Magnetic Luminex Assays are the most flexible bead-based multiplex assays that we offer. They allow up to 50 user-defined target analytes to be simultaneously profiled using cell culture supernates, serum, or plasma samples.
- Simultaneously profile your selection of analytes in one sample.
- Choose from a wide menu of analytes, including many unique analytes
- Requires a small sample volume (<50 µL)
- Run your assay in just 3-4 hours
- Mass-calibrated standards for consistent results with every new lot of material
- Enough reagents for one 96-well plate
- Quick turn-around time: Kits are typically shipped within 5-10 days of ordering*
*Please allow additional time for international orders.
Performance Validation
R&D Systems Luminex Assays are validated for use with cell culture supernatants, plasma and serum. All Luminex assays are tested for sensitivity, intra-assay precision, inter-assay precision and to ensure assay linearity for validated sample types. Antibody pairs are selected and tested to confirm the parallel detection of natural and recombinant standard protein and to ensure the accurate determination of target analytes within biological samples. Assays for each target analyte are screened against all target analytes to confirm low antibody cross-reactivity.

Which Luminex Assay is Right for Me?
Assays for the Luminex platform are offered as High Performance Assays or Discovery Assays.
High Performance Assays are optimized and validated as complete panels with a focused set of analytes. You can choose from Fixed Panels, Premixed options, or Configurable User Mix formats depending on your needs.
Discovery Assays deliver maximum flexibility, enabling the creation of fully customized panels tailored to your research needs. With universal reagents validated for compatibility across all analytes in the menu, they support endless customization possibilities.
Additional Information About Luminex Assays
All R&D Systems Luminex Assays are designed for use with any Luminex instrument including MAGPIX, Luminex 200, FLEXMAP 3D, and the INTELLIFLEX.
Luminex assays use color-coded, magnetic microparticles coated with analyte-specific antibodies to enable multiplex quantitation. During the assay, standards and samples are added to the wells, where target analytes bind to the capture antibodies. A biotinylated detection antibody cocktail is then introduced, followed by a Streptavidin-PE conjugate that generates a fluorescent signal proportional to the amount of analyte present.
Each microparticle is identified by a unique signature and the signal intensity is measured using a Luminex instrument. These assays are designed to deliver reliable and reproducible results with validated antibody pairs and optimized protocols. They are well suited for applications that require sensitivity, accuracy, and confidence in your data while enabling efficient multiplexing to measure multiple targets simultaneously.
