I was interested in knowing if anyone has used any quantitative bead-based assays on the FACS Vantage. I'm looking at Multiflow and ImmunoFlow from BioE for the analysis of various cytokines from cell supernatents. Each kit comes with only enough standard control material for 5 runs. Their test kits can do 100 tests. I feel the changes in daily alignment on the Vantage would mandate running standards each time you ran the assay. As opposed to the FACS Scan, with a fixed alignment, where you might be able to use the same standard curve repeatedly for the same lot. I'd appreciate any feedback.
