Cytokine profiling

Currently trying https://www.evetechnologies.com.

It would be nice to find a Luminex provider, e.g. https://www.cambridgebiomedical.com/luminex.

Also talking w/ a startup called http://www.correliabio.com.

MUSC's core supports Luminex protocols: http://academicdepartments.musc.edu/immunology/IMD-Core/FlexMap/

They have the equipment for the readouts but the sample preparation and purchasing consumables seem to be our responsibility. The kits are relatively expensive (>$2500) but are good for 100 samples ($25 per sample). Need the core to walk us through a typical setup before committing ourselves to these kits but currently Eve's pricing is on par with the in-house solution.

Bead-based flow looks like an interesting alternative for us: http://discourse.hammerlab.org/t/paper-queue-topic/454/1978?u=hammer
