Immunodiffusion
A quantitative technique used to detect and estimate the concentration of an antigen by measuring the precipitation which is formed as a result of the interaction of the antigen and an antibody at optimal concentration.

Technology
A quantitative technique used to detect and estimate the concentration of an antigen by measuring the precipitation which is formed as a result of the interaction of the antigen and an antibody at optimal concentration.
Technology
An enhancement of immunoelectrophoresis in which a series of post-electrophoretic gel slabs are layered with cellulose-acetate gels saturated with specific antibodies. The resulting antigen-antibody complexes fixed on the second gel may then be stained, allowing sensitive and specific qualitative visual identification of paraproteins by electrophoretic position. It can be used to identify specific proteins in the blood or urine. It has greatest application in the identification and monitoring of monoclonal proteins that are produced in conditions like Waldenstom's macroglobulinaemia and multiple myeloma.
Technology
A simple non-quantitative form of interference microscopy of great utility in visualising live cells. Small differences in optical path length due to differences in refractive index and thickness of structures are visualised as differences in light intensity.
Technology
Quantitative PCR: a method to measure very small amounts of RNA transcripts as cDNA targets. There are two strategies currently used, one is called Competitive RTPCR and the other is called Real-Time PCR.
Technology
A quantitative technique used to detect and estimate the concentration of an antigen by measuring the diameter of the ring of precipitation (precipitin ring), which is formed as a result of the interaction of the antigen and an antibody at optimal concentration.
Technology
A laboratory test that produces a quantitative measurement of the reflection or transmission properties of a material as a function of wavelength.
Technology
A quantum optical-electrical phenomena consisting of an alteration in light reflectance as a result of binding of molecules to a surface from which total internal reflection is occurring. Used to detect macromolecular interactions, SPR can be used as the basis for a sensor which is capable of sensitive and quantitative measurement of a broad spectrum of chemical and biological entities.
