Cytometric Bead Arrays (CBA) - support page.
CBAs are extremely effective for measuring multiple proteins in small volume liquid samples. This bead-based technology is particularly useful when limited volumes of samples are available. Our lab has extensively tested and currently runs assays using CBA kits manufactured by Becton-Dickinson. The kits can be used to detect up to 30 proteins in 25-50 ul of sample.
