Polystyrene microplate strips coated with purified, biochemically characterized antigens are used as solid phase containing bound antigens.If the sample is positive, specific antibodies in the diluted serum sample attach to the antigens coupled to the solid phase.

The EUROLINE/Western Blot: A New Technique for Extensive Antibody Profiles.

DNA microarrays consist of DNA sequences (probes) which are applied to a solid carrier material, such as glass, in microscopically small spots located at defined positions. The probes differ from one another by their DNA sequence – the order of their building blocks (nucleotides with the bases adenine, A; cytosine, C; guanine, G; thymine, T). When the DNA of a patient contains segments that match the microarray probes, the complementary DNA regions bind together – they hybridize. This binding is measured via a computer-generated reading and evaluated as a positive signal.

MERGITE! enables, for the first time, standardised and fully automated washing of IIFT slides. The compact table- top device utilises a directed but gentle liquid flow, which washes up to 50 substrate fields with consistent quality and without damage to the substrates. The use of carriers allows convenient switching between incubation and wash stations with just one hand maneuver and without the slides drying out. MERGITE! is equipped with an integrated touch screen and does not require an additional PC

With the IF Sprinter and the Sprinter XL, EUROIMMUN offers flexible solutions for fully automated processing of immunofluorescence tests. The devices perform identification, dilution and transfer of samples, as well as all washing and incubation steps.

The EUROLabWorkstation IFA heralds a new era in IIFT automation. With this new development EUROIMMUN enables fully automated and standardised processing with highest capacity and highest efficiency for laboratories with high sample throughput. Up to 750 substrate fields and more than 700 samples can be analysed at high throughput with just one worklist. The system was developed by EUROIMMUN with a focus on data integrity and minimisation of manual processes. In the slide washing process, the established TITERPLANE Technique is complemented by the newly developed MERGITE! technology. This ensures brilliant fluorescence signals without background for the automatically mounted slides.

The LED fluorescence microscope EUROStar III Plus has been precisely tailored to the requirements of indirect immunofluorescence - superfluous, and in some cases expensive components have been intentionally dispensed with. A camera can be attached directly to the integrated photo tube for capturing digital images. Switching between the ocular and the camera is no longer necessary owing to the convenient 50/50 beam splitter. EUROIMMUN also offers the highly functional EUROPicture software for displaying and handling of the digital images. In addition, the optional immunofluorescence positioning system (IF-PS) excludes positioning errors with manual entry of microscopy results. The EUROStar III Plus includes a halogen lamp as standard equipment for normal transmitted light microscopy in bright and dark field and can be upgraded for phase contrast work.
