Frequency Mixing Magnetic Detection Scanner for Imaging Magnetic Particles in Planar Samples

A scanner for imaging magnetic particles in planar samples was developed using the planar frequency mixing magnetic detection technique. The magnetic intermodulation product response from the nonlinear nonhysteretic magnetization of the particles is recorded upon a two-frequency excitation. It can be used to take 2D images of thin biological...

Optimization of Antigen Preparation for Hemagglutination Inhibition Assay of Newcastle Disease Virus Serology

This article presents a simplified method for preparing 4 hemagglutination units antigen for Newcastle disease virus serological testing. By accurately determining the hemagglutination titer of the antigen, combined with a more rigorous back-titration method, and a well-defined adjustment process, it enhances test efficiency, reduces false positives, and improves disease surveillance in...

The Virus-Like Particles Capture Assay: A Method to Isolate Antigen-Displaying VLPs from a Sample Using Neutralizing Antibody-Conjugated Magnetic Beads

In this video, we demonstrate an immunoprecipitation assay, called the VLP capture assay, to isolate antigen-displaying virus-like particles, or VLPs, from a sample. The antigen binds with specific antibodies bound to magnetic beads, forming an immobilized antigen-antibody complex that is later separated and stored for further...
