WHITE FOx bridges the gap between isolation and quantification to provide effective analytical EV workflows.  It provides fast and convenient calibration of affinity collected EV for downstream analysis.

  • Simple, integrated one-step affinity isolation and quantitation. 
  • Highly sensitive and marker specific. 
  • Hours, not days.  Automated
  • Perform directly in cell culture media or blood plasma samples. 
  • nm to µm vesicle size range. 

Case study:
Real-time quantitation of extracellular vesicles in complex biofluids 

WHITE FOx detects extracellular vesicles quickly and accurately at physiologically relevant concentrations.

  • Sensitivity up to 103 – 104 times higher than required for EV detection in healthy or cancer patients’ plasma.
  • Selectively captures EVs with breast cancer biomarkers in blood plasma.

Extracellular vesicle detection and quantification.

A. Capture antibodies on the dip-in probe bind marker-specific EVs in a label-free configuration, with optional fast signal amplification via detection antibodies and gold nanoparticles.
B. EV detection possible down to 3.5×107 particles/ml with anti-CD63/ B anti-CD9 capture-detection antibodies using signal amplification (plot adapted from Yildizhan et al., 2021).

A. Capture antibodies against neuron tissue marker covalently bound to the dip-in probe bind neuron-specific EVs followed by signal amplification via detection antibodies and gold nanoparticles.
B. Marker-positive EVs in disease patients (DP) and healthy (HP) shown by shift. CD81 DP indicates total captured EVs compared to hIgG DP negative control.

Case study:
Characterizing and isolating cell-type specific EVs in blood 

WHITE FOx provides fast and easy isolation of neuronally derived EVs directly in human plasma of healthy and Alzheimers disease patients.

  • Repeat capture cycles for cumulative depletion of EVs from the source sample and delivery to the target solution.
  • Neuron biomarker EVs can be quantified and collected from plasma samples of diseased patients and healthy individuals.
