Simply attach capture antibodies or proteins to WHITE FOx probes, then dip into target antibodies to measure the interaction in a label-free configuration. 

WHITE FOx can accurately detect, quantify and measure the potency of your target of interest in a variety of complex fluids including cell culture and lysates. Label-free nM to µM sensitivities in as little as one minute make our immunoassay biosensor an essential development tool. 

  • Easy to set up and hands off operation.
  • Fast assay time (from 1 to 20 min). 
  • Clinically relevant sensitivity (0.97 – 80 ng/mL in 100x diluted sample). 
  • Results better than ELISA, in much less time per sample. 
  • Minimum sample preparation: no purification. 

hIgG screening.

The protein A sensor probe allows for fast label free concentration screening of total hIgG in cell culture samples. With a fast assay time, down to 1 minute, and ng/ml to µg/ml sensitivity with a wide dynamic range with excellent reproducibility this is an ideal tool for rapid screening.

hIgG concentration example curve on protein A probes. Triplicate data points shown, with CVs well below 5%.

Case study:
Label-free quantification in bioproduction samples

WHITE FOx monitors the production of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies in real time and the dip-in protocol means that 1 to 60 samples can be analyzed straight after collection. 

  • Faster than ELISA.
  • Results within 10 minutes with pre-functionalized probes.
  • Measure directly in the sample medium for a rapid turnaround at near-real-time process optimization. 
  • Highly reproducible. 

Calibration curves performed five weeks apart gave almost identical results, highlighting WHITE FOx’s reproducibility.
