Ravi Kumar Sharma

Hi Emmanuel. You can consider using bead arrays based on fluorescence (CBA/legendplex). They are quite sensitive and available as multiplex too.

Good luck

Rosa Mistica Coles Ignacio

I agree with Ravi. In addition, you can try proteome profiler antibody array that allows more than 100 proteins in a single sample.
