ELISpot and FluoroSpot basics
How to succeed with ELISpot
This webinar provides an in-depth guide for each step of the ELISpot protocol, including tips and tricks, key details to think about, and best practices. You'll learn stuff like the differences between HRP and ALP detection, red blood cell contamination, serum-free medium, spots in negative controls, artifacts, and much more!
Presenter: Jens Gertow, PhD
Panel: Niklas Ahlborg Assoc. Prof. & Christian Smedman, PhD
Master your next FluoroSpot
This webinar provides an in-depth guide for each step of the FluoroSpot protocol, including tips and tricks, key details to think about, as well as best practices. We cover things like FluoroSpot plates, coating with capture antibody, plate washing, and so much more!
Presenter: Tyler Sandberg, PhD
Panel: Niklas Ahlborg, Assoc. Prof. & Christian Smedman, PhD
B cell profiling with ELISpot and FluoroSpot
In this webinar learn how to set up your B cell ELISpot and FluoroSpot assay. We cover basic B cell immunology, measuring acute plasmablast and plasma cell responses, memory B cell responses, tips and best practices for B cell assays, and some applications in immunology research.

Panel: Gun Kesa, PhD & Tyler Sandberg, PhD
ELISpot and FluoroSpot analysis made easy with IRIS and ASTOR: click, read, done!
In this webinar, we show the benefits of our next-generation instruments, Mabtech IRIS and ASTOR. We cover why we developed these ELISpot and FluoroSpot readers, how they can improve your lab's efficiency, and give a practical demonstration of the Apex software with applications for CRO and pharma.
Presenter: Berend Bassleer, MSc
Panel: Renata Vernaite, PhD, Jesper Larsson, MSc, & Christian Smedman, PhD
Applications
Is your ELISA suitable for clinical samples?
In this webinar, we talk about the importance of making sure your ELISAs will work with clinical samples. Heterophilic antibody interference is a major, often overlooked or even unknown, issue in ELISAs leading to inaccurate results. Learn how we developed a solution to give you accurate results to your clinical data.
Presenter: Natalie Sippl, PhD
Panel: Caroline Grönwall, PhD, Assoc. Prof. (Karolinska Institutet), Anna Fogdell-Hahn, PhD, Assoc. Prof. (Karolinska Institutet), Johan Rönnelid (Uppsala University), MD, Prof., Bartek Makower, PhD
T cells in COVID-19 research
In this webinar, we highlighted why T cells were the (not-so-secret) stars of COVID-19 research – plus how ELISpot and FluoroSpot techniques were already then facilitating a remarkable global research effort.
Presenter: Bartek Makower, PhD
Guest: Marcus Buggert, PhD, Assoc. Prof. (Karolinska Institutet)
FluoroSpot and ELISpot as tools in COVID-19 research
In this webinar, we cover how ELISpot and FluoroSpot can be used in COVID-19 research. We cover publications using the assays as well as practical advantages of FluoroSpot with precious samples.
Presenter: Bartek Makower, PhD
Panel: Niklas Ahlborg, PhD, Assoc. Prof., Christian Smedman, PhD, & Jens Gertow, PhD
FluoroSpot in cell and gene therapy: Higher sensitivity, higher precision
In this webinar, learn all about how FluoroSpot can be used in the research and development of cell and gene therapy products. We'll talk about screening for unwanted or preexisting immunogenicity to your CGT product, assessing potency and method of action (MOA), and much more!
Presenter: Jens Gertow, PhD
Panel: Maria Karvouni, PhD & Esther Schoutrop, PhD
Simplifying focus-forming assays for virology research
In this webinar, learn how FociSpot, paired with Apex 2.1 software of Mabtech IRIS 2 can enhance the precision and efficiency of your focus-forming assays. We cover the basics of focus-forming assays, neutralization assays, and how to use the FociSpot application in Apex.
Presenters: Renata Varnaite, PhD & Jesper Larsson, MSc
FluoroSpot and ELISpot in clinical trials - essentials for validation and implementation
This webinar will walk you through key assay setup considerations, seamless implementation, and real-world applications on how these assays have driven success in vaccine development and other critical research areas.
Presenter: Tyler Sandberg, PhD
Panel: Renata Varnaite, PhD & Esther Schoutrop, PhD
Novel insights into tuberculosis vaccines and diagnostics
In this webinar, we cover how novel peptide pools can distinguish between active tuberculosis and latent infections as well as evaluating promising biomarkers for diagnostics using e.g., FluoroSpot. Learn all about Mabtech tools used in TB research.
Host: Jens Gertow, PhD
Panel: Cecilia Lindestam Arlehamn, PhD (La Jolla Institute of Immunology) & Christopher Sundling, PhD (Karolinska Institutet)
Vaccine immune profiling with ELISpot and FluoroSpot
In this webinar, learn how ELISpot and FluoroSpot have been fundamental tools in vaccine development and research. From antigen discovery to characterizing vaccine-specific T cell and B cell memory, we cover it all!
