Epitome Biosystems is a pioneer in the development of a new breed of protein measurement tools. Its proprietary EpiTag(TM) technology delivers highly specific antibodies and assay standards for quantitation of any protein based solely on sequence. These reagents easily interface with any measurement system including bead based and planar array platforms and are particularly useful in developing micro-scale immunoassays. Epitome Biosystems is backed by funding from Flagship Ventures and Vinod Khosla, with offices in Waltham, MA. For more information, visit http://www.epitomebiosystems.com.

[T]raditional DSC systems are limited to taking one measurement at a time, and a new sample must be loaded between each measurement. The Fine Ingredients Division develops, manufactures and markets natural flavor extracts, natural functional food ingredients, natural pharma/nutraceutical extracts, essential oils and unique citrus products and aromatic chemicals.

For measurement systems that result in quantitative measurements such as weight, concentration, or strength, it is important to determine the magnitude of any error in the resulting measurements. If the error is large, it may be impossible to determine whether or not an individual sample is within spec. In addition, designed experiments rely on the ability to separate real effects of making changes from the background noise and could be sabotaged by an inadequate measurement system.

Microsoft took this approach with their ambitious measurement system development project last year as did the Canadian Public Relations Society (read more here)before them. Perhaps Da Vinci will ... be seduced by the allure of the single metric.

The PAX-it measurement software makes "black box" video measurement systems a thing of the past. Why pay thousands more for other stand-alone outdated blackbox measuring devices, when the PAX-it measurement tools are available for under $1000!

While repeatability and reproducibility studies concentrate on the variability or precision of a measurement system, Linearity and Accuracy studies quantity the bias. In these studies, multiple measurements are made on reference samples and an equation is constructed for the bias of the measurements.
