Simple and standardized immune profiling
Immune profiling identifies and quantifies immune populations according to their phenotypic and functional features. It enables researchers to broadly understand unique immunologic response to disease or therapeutic interventions, and can potentially predict health outcomes.
Improve longitudinal and multi-site studies with the option to preserve and store samples as needed – enabling more flexibility to stain and process samples at any time and from any location, with CyTOF immune profiling.

Maxpar Direct Immune Profiling Assay
A complete sample-to-answer solution for single-cell, high-dimensional immune profiling of human PBMC and whole blood with proven performance and reproducibility
The Maxpar™ Direct Immune Profiling Assay and Maxpar Pathsetter software provide an easy-to-implement single-tube assay for routine and reproducible sample collection to capture the highly individual nature of immune response.
- Identify 37 circulating immune cell types in human whole blood or PBMC samples with the validated, dry-format assay
- Standardize immune monitoring studies in a single-tube workflow with automated reporting and data analysis
- Minimize variability and ensure high reproducibility of multiparameter data
Available in two sizes, a 25-test kit and 5-test kit format.
Designed for clinical research
Variability in sample handling, panel preparation, and data analysis can make it difficult to compare results across sites or over the course of a study. MDIPA’s standardized workflow makes it ideal for clinical trials where reproducibility is critical.
MDIPA set the benchmark for standardized immune profiling and is:
- Used in hundreds of studies and many clinical trials
- <10% CV between sites and instruments
- Easily expanded with add-on panels or markers of interest
- Compatible with stabilizing reagents, stain-freeze workflows and barcoding methods
The reproducibility of the Maxpar Direct Immune Profiling System has been demonstrated run-to-run and site-to-site, ideal when samples are processed and analyzed by different technicians or at different study sites.

Easily expand and customize with Maxpar Direct Expansion Panels
Easily build on the Maxpar Direct backbone panel with individual antibodies or Expansion Panels, designed to enable deeper profiling of specific immune cell subsets that are relevant in immune-mediated disease, such as infectious disease, cancer, autoimmunity or allergy.
Choose from 9 Expansion Panels
- Surface profiles
- Cell proliferation
- Cell exhaustion
- Apoptosis
- Metabolism
- Phosphoproteins
- Cytokine production
- Transcription factors
More flexibility with a single-tube assay
A ready-to-use assay that eliminates variability and reduces errors from liquid pipetting and panel preparation.
CyTOF immune profiling panels are fully compatible with popular stabilization reagents, conserving cell population integrity even under fixed conditions. Whole blood samples can be preserved at any time point, eliminating time-sensitive challenges when processing samples for multi-site and longitudinal studies.
5-minute reporting
Maxpar™ Pathsetter is a fully automated reporting and data analysis solution that automatically identifies 37 immune cell types in FCS files from samples processed with the Maxpar Direct Immune Profiling System.
- Automated selection and enumeration of single viable cells
- A high-dimensional Cen-se′ (next-gen t-SNE) map of identified populations
- A report summary for each population, with cell number, percent of total cells and percent of parent population
- A QC metrics report for acquisition and modeling quality
Did you know you can create your own lyophilized panel?
Advancing on the validated dry-format Maxpar™ Direct Immune Profiling Assay, custom lyophilized LyoMax™ Panels provide the same streamlined workflow but are individually tailored to specific markers of interest and standardized for large batches.
Take a lookKey publications showcasing lyophilized immune profiling panels
Featured publication: Deep phenomics of PPR agonist activated human blood, Barman et al. 2025 – The study shows that differences in cellular composition can substantially alter the immune signatures observed in vitro, highlighting the importance of selecting the appropriate sample type for immune profiling.
Flex-Fit CyTOF Panels
Bringing versatility to panel design
