Immunoassay blockers

Immunoassay blocker line to add them to your in vitro diagnostic assays

At Rekom Biotech we want to offer you more than just raw material for your in vitro diagnostics tests. That is why we have created a line of immunoassay blockers, so you can add them to your IVD assays and solve some of the problems you find in your workday routine.

Immunoassay blockers are used in diagnostic assays to reduce non-specific binding and other interference than could lead to false-positive results and, thus, an incorrect diagnosis. The blockers work by reducing the non-specific binding, increasing the signal-to-noise ratio. They can avoid (i) unspecific interactions with the solid-phase, and non-target proteins; (ii) and specific interactions with endogenous antibodies present within the specimen sample, which are not the specific target antibodies. An example of the latter are antibody interferences from HAMA, HA, RF and IgG (for IgM detection).
