						 Introduction: Autoantibody testing, including against Centromere Proteins (CENP), is important in the identification of autoimmune diseases. 
  Test methods may be manual, slow, labor-intensive and/or fragmented. Development of highly automated tools is needed. We aimed to evaluate 
  the performance of MosaiQ® CENP-B (CENP-B-MA), a planar microarray immunoassay designed for use with the fully automated, continuous 
  random access, high-throughput MosaiQ System, for the qualitative serological detection of anti-CENP-B autoantibodies (ACA-B) as an aid in the 
  diagnosis of systemic sclerosis.
Methods: A comparator study was performed at Hôpital Pitié-Salpêtrière, Paris, France using anonymized serum samples, characterized as 
  ACA-B non-reactive or reactive with CE-marked devices. Reproducibility and repeat.. Read More»
