Appendix: Survey Questionnaire

SERIESONEAPRIL 11






Immunoassay/ELISA QuestionnaireThank you for agreeing to participate in the Immunoassay Survey. Your answers will be used in aggregate with other survey participants to help life science product suppliers develop systems with the performance characteristics that are most important to you.

We will randomly select one individual from the pool of respondents to receive US$500 (or foreign currency equivalent). In addition, we will randomly select one 1 of every 25 participants to receive a $25 gift certificate to Amazon.com. Alternatively, winners may choose to donate the value of their award to the Red Cross International Response Fund. The survey should take approximately 15 minutes to complete, based on the breadth of techniques each participant currently performs.

Important: only one response is allowed per survey per participant.Please begin by maximizing your browser window and answering the first question below.
