      Immuno-assay development. As a Research Associate IV and team leader, I have developed numerous Quantikine kits (Q kit) - Elisa kits for R&D systems. Most of the Q kits I developed had either poor plate precision issue, huge standard lyophilization loss or instability of detection antibody issues. My most recent experience was human CXCL1/Lymphotactin development. I managed to overcome the plate precision problem on automated coating mavhine and successfully passed the design and validation review. This kit is currently on the R&D systems' market.
