As an educational tool, we have provided animated schematics of the Fluorescence Polarization Immunoassay (FPIA) technology and the Microparticle Enzyme Immunoassay (MEIA) technology. Individualized schematics for each of Abbott's thyroid assays will soon be provided to illustrate the particular assay format.
