Abstract

Provided herein are systems and methods for assays. In particular, provided herein are systems and methods for performing high throughput immunoassays. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide multiplex capable LSPR immunoassays that meet a need for rapid (e.g., near real time), accurate immunoassays (e.g. for use in beside diagnostics). The LSPR assays are as accurate as existing ELISA assays but provide the advantage of increased speed and multiplex capability. In addition, the LSPR immunoassays are able to analyze small volumes of complex patient samples (e.g., serum).
