RID讀取器是一種經濟高效且緊湊的儀器，旨在簡化和加速讀取沉淀素徑向**擴散環的過程。
這款便攜式儀器針對使用RID板的所有規模的實驗室，通過*少的用戶輸入就可以有效地定量已知蛋白質的濃度，從而減少了用戶錯誤。
RID閱讀器具有一個內置攝像機，可以將沉淀環的大而清晰的圖像傳輸到計算機屏幕上，以提高測量精度。
直觀的軟件使用戶可以從多個選項中進行選擇，以根據自動生成的校準曲線計算結果，從而提高對結果的信心。
可以保存數據，校準曲線和圖像以備將來參考，從而為培訓和質量控制提供了有用的工具。
該技術基于抗原和抗體的復合以產生可見的沉淀素環。沉淀素環的直徑與樣品中蛋白質的含量成正比，可以使用目鏡進行測量，或者使用Binding Sites Digital RID Plate Reader進行更**的測量。
我們的大多數RID分析均基于常規抗體-抗原技術。在需要提高靈敏度的地方，我們開發了NANORID ?技術。這些試劑盒使用乳膠增強抗體，即使在低蛋白質濃度下也能進行準確定量。

The RID Reader is a cost effective & compact instrument, designed to simplify & speed-up the process of reading precipitin radial immunodiffusion rings.
This portable instrument is aimed at all sizes of laboratories using RID plates, decreasing user error by efficiently quantifying the concentrations of known proteins with minimal user input.
The RID Reader has a built-in video camera that transmits large, clear images of the precipitin rings to the computer screen to improve measurement precision.
The intuitive software enables the user to select from several options for the calculation of results from an automatically generated calibration curve to increase confidence in results.
Data, calibration curves and images can be saved for future reference, providing a useful tool for training and quality control.
The technique is based on the complexing of antigen and antibody to produce a visible precipitin ring. The diameter of the precipitin ring is directly proportional to the amount of protein present in the sample and can be measured using an eye piece or, for more precise measurement, with Binding Sites Digital RID Plate Reader.
The majority of our RID assays are based on conventional antibody-antigen technology. Where increased sensitivity is required, we have developed NANORID? technology. These kits use latex enhanced antibodies to give accurate quantitation, even at low concentrations of protein.
Kit Features
Multiple Methods: All of our RID assays contain the procedures for performing three different assay methods:
RID reference table (Mancini)
Complete diffusion (Mancini)
Incomplete diffusion (Fahey and McKelvey)
Cost efficient: RID plates can be sectioned to allow each plate to be used more than once
Improved Accuracy and Precision: A sample diluent is provided to reduce viscosity differences between samples
Enlarged & clearly defined rings are displayed on the computer screen with video camera technology
Easy quantification of ring size increases accuracy of results
Minimal maintenance and quick calibration combined with simple software make the digital RID plate reader very user friendly
Bright internal light source
Enables consistent & constant viewing for precise measurement
RID plate is kept still in the reader
Steady viewing of the rings decreases chances of user error compared to more traditional reading methods
Calibration curves are drawn by the software & results are calculated automatically
Increases lab efficiency & negates the chance of transcription errors
All data & images can be stored
No need for bulky paper files & all data can be quickly / easily accessed

Software
Radial immunodiffusion methods vary and results can be calculated in several different ways. The flexibility of the RIDRead package allows the user to select their preferred option for result calculation from a calibration curve:
A linear curve is used if accuracy is of primary importance
Choose a binomial curve if results are required quickly (uses a Fahey method)
A point-to-point curve is used for functional complement assays
