MSD GOLD products and services provide a rapid and convenient method for the development of new assays and the transfer of existing ELISAs to the MSD platform. MSD GOLD designation certifies that our plates and reagents conform to rigorous specifications for uniformity, consistency, and precision. These specifications are designed to meet the requirements of critical assays and clinical research for the drug safety and toxicology communities. MSD GOLD plates and reagents are ideal for biomarker discovery, vaccine studies, serology, companion diagnostics, personalized medicine, and screening applications.

MSD GOLD Plates

MSD offers a new Gold standard in streptavidin- and avidin-coated plates, ensuring unsurpassed performance for immunogenicity testing, pharmacokinetic / pharmacodynamic studies, and assay development. MSD GOLD Streptavidin and High Bind Avidin plates are designed to help our customers develop highly sensitive and robust immunoassays on MSD's electrochemiluminescence platform.

We offer the following MSD GOLD plates:

• 96-Well Small Spot Streptavidin Plate
• 96-Well Streptavidin Plate
• 96-Well High Bind Avidin Plate

MSD GOLD SULFO-TAG NHS-Ester

MSD GOLD SULFO-TAG NHS-Ester is used as the detection reagent in MSD's electrochemiluminescence assays. MSD GOLD SULFO-TAG NHS-Ester has been developed through rigorous multi-lot testing for reproducibility and precision. Rigorous quality control procedures and stringent release specifications ensure consistency of the reagent within the same lot and between different lots. These characteristics are critical for customers working in validated environments or conducting longitudinal studies that require high performance and reproducibility.

MSD GOLD SULFO-TAG NHS-Ester Conjugation Packs

Comprehensive conjugation packs are offered that include all the components and the detailed protocols that are necessary for conjugating and purifying detection reagents with MSD GOLD SULFO-TAG NHS-Ester. Two sizes of conjugation packs are offered to enable the conjugation of different amounts of IgG. Each pack contains enough material for 5 reactions (i.e., 5 vials of MSD GOLD SULFO-TAG NHS-Ester).
