Antibody-based system for detection of differential protein expression patterns

摘要

The present invention is a kit and method for identifying the presence or absence of a protein expression profile that is known to be associated with a particular disease or an altered biological state. The method is based on the combination of a known protein expression pattern biomarker with the use of an antibody-based detection system. The images of two antibody-based detection systems are compared by an overlay procedure to determine protein expression patterns in biological samples.
