  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-007670",
  "term": "Multiplex immunoassay",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "An immunoassay that measures many different proteins, such as cytokines, in one small sample at the same time, using a separate capture antibody for each target, commonly bound to color-coded microbeads or arranged as spots on a surface. It contrasts with a conventional ELISA, which reads one analyte per well, and bead formats can read dozens to hundreds of targets from a single sample volume.",
