Page 24: Sensitivity capacity

• Internal sample carry over: < 0.9%
• Soluble background fluorescence emission at 575 nm automatically subtracted from
fluorescence intensity values
Sensitivity
• Detect 1000 fluorochromes phycoerythrin (PE) per xMAP microsphere
• Reporter channel dynamic range: 3.5 decades of detection
Capacity
The specifications below reflect minimum capacity values:
• Analyze multiple 96-well plates per batch
• Analyze multiple assay templates per plate
• Distinguish a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 100 unique xMAP microsphere sets in a
single sample
• Detect and distinguish surface reporter fluorescence emissions at 575 nm on the surface of
1-100 unique xMAP microspheres sets in a single sample
• Sample core: 15-20 µm core at 1 µL/sec. sample inject rate
• Maintain samples at a constant temperature from 35°C to 55°C (95°F to 131°F)
• Automatic sampling from a 96-well plate
• Start sampling from any well position
• Sheath container and waste container hold enough volume to run up to two 96-well plates
between refills
• Microtiter plates with 96 wells must be compatible with the Luminex XYP instrument plate
holder. The following microtiter plate types are compatible with the Luminex XYP
instrument plate holder: flatbottom, conical, round, filter bottom, half plates, overall height
no more than 0.75” (19 mm), any color.
• Microtiter plates with 96 wells must be compatible with Luminex XYP instrument heater
block temperature from 35°C to 55°C (95°F to 131°F) when performing heated assays and
using the heater block.
