Multiplex assay
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-007669
An analytical method that simultaneously measures multiple analytes in a single sample, often using a single reaction vessel. This technique significantly increases throughput and reduces sample volume and reagent consumption compared to performing individual assays for each analyte. It is widely used in genomics, proteomics, and clinical diagnostics.
