Description

General description

Polystyrene microparticles are stabilizedcolloidal particles that possess a negative charge and are synthesized by thepolymerization of styrene under conditions that induce spontaneous coalescentbead formation. Due to their versatility, these beads can be used in antibody-mediatedagglutination diagnostics, electron microscopy, cell counter calibration, andphagocytosis experiments.

Application

Polystyrene latex beads have been used:

inthe flow cytometric assay of endothelial microparticles (EMPs)
in thedetection of capsular polysaccharide (CPS) antibody/antigen latex agglutinationtest
to evaluate the phagocytic activity in hemocytes of shrimps
