The Multiplex Array for Indoor Allergens (MARIA®) combines Indoor Biotechnologies proprietary panels of monoclonal antibodies with the Luminex xMAP® multiplexing technology. MARIA® technology uses polystyrene microspheres that are internally dyed with distinct fluorophores to create as many as 100 distinctly coded bead sets. Capture antibodies are covalently coupled to different bead sets and then used to develop quantitative immunoassays using biotinylated detector antibodies and a reporting fluorophore.

Indoor Biotechnologies uses a Thermo Fisher Orbitrap platform combined with a Vanquish Flex UHPLC liquid chromatography system.
The Q Exactive is a hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometer, combining a high-performance quadrupole mass filter system with a high resolution, sensitive Orbitrap mass analyzer. The instrument is designed for discovery proteomics, quantitative proteomics and analysis of post translation modifications. Applications include targeted or untargeted screening and a broad range of qualitative and quantitative applications in drug discovery, proteomics, environmental and food safety.
