Manual Immunomagnetic Separation (IMS) Using Invitrogen Products
Immunomagnetic separation is a regulatory agency-approved method used for the concentration and isolation of Cryptosporidium and Giardia in water. Accurately performing this task provides valuable information, giving an indication of public health significance. By utilising IDEXX-provided Invitrogen products to execute the IMS method, the separation and isolation of such pathogens can be easy, rapid, and accurate.
