Hi everyone,

- I'm trying to optimize a multiplex assay but I keep running into a problem.

- I have a protein extract from one sample that has my antigen and protein extract of a similar sample that has everything else BUT my antigen (so a negative control).

I'm trying to show that the assay is successful in discriminating between the samples containing and lacking the antigen. I was successful in doing it once but I have a problem replicating it.

The net FMI of my wild type sample is almost the same as the net FMI of my sample that lacks the antigen.

Any suggestions on how I can optimize for the assay?

P.S.: my primary antibody is super specific to my antigen. My secondary antibody is commercially bought and can detect ALL the proteins specific to my extract.
