Description

The iBind™ Western Device is an automated western-processing device that performs every step from blocking to washes to antibody incubations via sequential lateral flow (SLF). SLF allows the timely release and flow of solutions and antibodies to the membrane without need of an external power source. Each solution is released from the iBind™ device wells to an iBind™ Card via SLF; the solutions are then wicked towards the stack region of the card. The glass fiber matrix of the card allows for homogenous and consistent flow of the solutions to the membrane, increasing the antigen-antibody interaction.

Features of the iBind™ Western Device include:

• Simple, automated solution
• No external power source
• Superior reproducibility over traditional manual methods
• Better antigen antibody interaction—solutions flow between the iBind™ Card and membrane for maximum interaction between protein and antibody

The iBind™ western detection procedure minimizes hands-on time and is highly reproducible and compatible with all western protocols. Set up time is fast: within 2.5 h you are ready for the detection step. Carry out detection right away or wait until the next day without affecting performance.

The iBind™ Western Device works exclusively with iBind™ Cards and the iBind™ Solution Kit to process one mini-membrane for immunodetection. The iBind™ device provides automated convenience and superior reproducibility over traditional manual methods.
