Sensitivity and Specificity for Lung Cancer Detection
Specificity is achieved with Label-free Sandwich Assays
• Resonance Wavelength Shift
with Induced Lysate in PBS.
• No Resonance Wavelength Shift
with Un-Induced Lysate in PBS.
• Secondary Supershift with secondary
antibody in PBS: Sandwich
• Specificity demonstrated further with
isotype matched control mouse IgG1
• Secondary Supershift with secondary
antibody in PBS: Sandwich
