MycoMEIA Aspergillus Assay Uncoated Plates

The MycoMEIA® Aspergillus Assay (MycoMEIA) is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay (EIA) that detects Aspergillus antigens in urine. The assay uses two mouse monoclonal antibodies that recognize galactofuranose (galf) epitopes. Both monoclonal antibodies are used to coat the wells of the microplate to bind the antigen, and to detect the antigen bound to the sensitized microplate as horseradish-peroxidase conjugates. Uncoated plates are used to fill in empty spaces if a partial assay plate is being used.
