About
In an Indirect Immunofluorescence assay, patient serum is incubated with substrate-bound antigens on a slide. If specific autoantibodies are present, they bind to the antigens. Fluorescently labeled secondary antibodies are added, which attach to the autoantibodies. Under a fluorescence microscope, the secondary antibodies emit light when exposed to specific wavelengths. The resulting patterns reveal the presence of autoantibodies and aid disease diagnostics.
Sebia’s Expertise
As a pioneer in indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) technology, ZEUS Scientific delivered quality and expertise in autoimmune serology that laboratories have relied upon since 1976 and now complete the Sebia autoimmune diagnostics portfolio. Sebia’s IFA ANA HEp-2 slides, as well as nDNA (C. lucilliae) slides, are well-known in the industry for their superior quality.
Experience the powerful partnership of the dIFine® automated microscope, the next-generation digital IFA imaging and interpretation system, paired with the dIFine® P30 processsor, the easy-to-use and efficient walk-away benchtop instrument for IFA slide handling.
