A microfluidic Western blot method and system including a microfluidic western blot method for immunoassay of proteins, the method including introducing a sample including the proteins onto a chip; electrophoretically separating the proteins; binding the separated proteins to beads to form protein-attached beads, the beads being magnetic; flowing the protein-attached beads into a magnetic holding region; applying a magnetic field to the magnetic holding region to fix the protein-attached beads in place within the magnetic holding region; binding primary antibodies to target proteins on the protein-attached beads; binding secondary antibodies to the bound primary antibodies; and detecting the bound secondary antibodies.

Method and system of microfluidic immunoassay using magnetic beads

Methods and systems for reducing the run-to-run variability in measurement results obtained by a sample analysis system. The method and system utilize data from previous sample runs to optimize analysis parameters for future test runs. The methods and systems are particularly suitable for microfluidic sample analysis.
