Using Lumit™ Technology to Address Inflammasome-mediated Cytokine Release

This webinar is Part 2 of the Lumit™ Technology Webinar Series. 

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • How to detect human or mouse IL-1ß with no sample transfer or wash steps using Lumit™ technology
  • How the Lumit™ technology has enabled specific detection of active IL-1ß
  • How Lumit™ cytokine assays can be combined with other inflammasome assays to identify and rank the potency of inflammasome inhibitors

Summary

Lumit™ Technology Webinar Series

Immunoassays are an essential tool for life science researchers, widely used for decades. Applying bioluminescent technology to this well-accepted assay format to create Lumit™ Immunoassays has made analyte detection faster and easier than ever before. This webinar series will introduce you to Lumit™ Immunoassay technology and highlight key research areas where bioluminescent immunoassays have supported research discoveries.

Part 2: Using Lumit™ Technology to Address Inflammasome-mediated Cytokine Release

In the second part of this series, Drs. Martha O’Brien, Promega, will dive into inflammasome research. Learn how simplifying cytokine detection from cultured cells supports inflammasome research.
