SPR Surface Plasmon Resonance Systems

Flexibility. Performance. Value.

In cooperation with the industry-leading instrument manufacturer Reichert, we offer three SPR instrument versions which push the limits of detection and sensitivity for label-free, real-time biomolecular interaction analysis — all for a much lower cost than the leading competitor.

Each system generates information-rich data to determine such key parameters as association/dissociation rate constants (ka/kd; kinetics), equilibrium (KD; affinity) constants, thermodynamics (ΔH) and concentration of active compounds in complex media.

The systems give invaluable insight into the dynamics of protein, peptide and small molecule binding assays that govern chemical and biological processes. They do not require yearly maintenance plans to keep them in peak performance so researchers do not feel the financial sting of high running costs.

In addition to biomolecular interaction studies, Reichert’s SPR systems can be used to quantify adsorption and desorption processes in non-biological systems or to follow the course of solid phase-based chemical reactions on the chip surface even in organic solvents.

3SPR
3-Channel Surface Plasmon Resonance System

The best compromise between throughput and cost. The 3-channel surface plasmon resonance (SPR) system costs 20% less than lower throughput systems offered by the leading competitor while providing the ability to investigate two biomolecular targets in one experiment with outstanding performance.

2SPR
2-Channel Surface Plasmon Resonance System

The best 2-channel SPR value you can buy. Choose the 2-channel surface plasmon resonance (SPR) system that lets you do more — and costs up to 30% less than the leading competitor. The Reichert 2SPR System pushes the limits of detection and sensitivity, which is why it’s used by leading universities, academic facilities and biotech startups around the world for label-free biomolecular interaction analysis.

Channels

4 channels let you run:

  • 3 experimental channels with one reference channel
  • 2 experimental channels with separate references
  • 4 channels or 2 pairs at once
  • 2 pairs at different times
2 channels let you run one experiment at a time (the other channel is for your reference data)
Cost 30-70% lower total cost of ownership over five years, compared to the leading competitor Up to 30% less than the leading competitor
Typical User Academic core facilities, academic labs, pharmaceutical labs, biotech labs Academic labs (including those with a single principle investigator) and biotech labs that don’t require high throughput
