Latex in Diagnostics Course
Announcing the 9th and 10th offerings
of the popular Latex Short Course:
Medical Diagnostic Applications of Latex Technology
Content: Theory and practical details of coating and using microspheres (or
latex particles) in diagnostic tests and assays and other biomedical applications.
We will teach about understanding, caring for, coating and using microspheres,
and will discuss applications ranging from latex agglutination tests;
turbidimetric immunoassays; immunochromatographic or "strip" tests; particle
capture ELISA " spot" tests; solid phase immunoassays using magnetic particles;
to the newest "proximity" assays, where an immunological reaction brings two
dissimilar microspheres together permitting energy transfer and light emission.
Faculty: Internationally known teachers, researchers, and consultants in the
field.
Dates: October 1, 2, & 3, 1997 in San Francisco (Ramada Plaza Hotel at Fisherman's
