Accurate detection and quantification of extracellular vesicles (EV) is critical for characterizing populations, verifying sample purity, and assessing their biological or clinical significance. Different analytical techniques are used depending on the research or application context. Common methods include ELISA and Western blotting to detect canonical markers (e.g., CD63, CD81, CD9). Each technique offers specific advantages in sensitivity, specificity, throughput, and quantification, and are often used in combination to ensure robust and reproducible EV characterization, in line with MISEV2018 guidelines.
