Akoya Biosciences Motif PD-1/PD-L1 Panels

Akoya Biosciences has launched two multiplex immunofluorescence kits for profiling immuno-oncology biomarkers in the tumor microenvironment. The Motif PD-1/PD-L1 panels focus on PD-1 immune checkpoint blockade in lung cancer and melanoma. Each kit includes six immunofluorescence markers, plus nuclear counterstain, to capture the cellular interactions associated with PD-1/PD-L1 immune suppression. The kits are optimized for high-throughput staining on commonly used autostainers and rapid scanning on the Vectra Polaris multiplexed imaging system.
