Our generic and customizable sensor probes consist of a gold-coated, optical fiber with a choice of surface chemistries that allow the binding of a range of proteins and biologicals. These disposable probes are placed in WHITE FOxTM, an automated analytical benchtop instrument for real-time analysis of biomolecular interactions.

This sensor technology uses a robust sensing principle for both label-free and fast labelled detection of biomolecules, including proteins, antibodies, antibody constructs, phage, complex particles, microvesicles, phage, VLP, viruses or cells in microliter volumes.

In minutes, you can get accurate information on binding affinity, kinetics or target concentration.

These interchangeable probes come in customisable or generic formats meaning that WHITE FOxTM can detect different target molecules with a single device, giving you full flexibility in use.

Our probes are now available with the following surface chemistries, allowing you to select the optimal method for your bioassay. All formats are shipped and stored at room temperature. And if your capture molecule allows they can be regenerated for reuse after most types of assays.

Carboxyl
A generic surface chemistry that serves a wide range of applications for proteins and amine containing molecules.
Ni-NTA
For oriented immobilization of His-tag proteins; convenient for recombinant protein constructs and ideal for display library screening; allows multiplexing and complete surface regeneration.
Streptavidin
For easy immobilization of biotin-labelled molecules, including proteins, antibodies and peptides
Protein A
A generic surface for quantifying IgG; ideal for screening IgG libraries for binding potency. Easy regeneration included.
Additional probe types are in development that will open up an even broader range of applications.

human IgG(1) concentration series from 0; 0.03 to 256 µg/ml, captured on a Protein A probe, over >45 cycles of regeneration.

Regeneration

All probes are compatible to common regeneration conditions. While regeneration on carboxyl and streptavidin probes may be limited by the stability of the capture proteins immobilised in the assay, the Ni-NTA and protein A probes allow for complete regeneration to return to the original probe surface. As these surfaces are robust, many regeneration cycles are possible.

In fast IgG quantification, more than 45 cycles of regeneration have shown to still produce complete recovery of probe sensitivity. So you can screen efficiently and reliably across an entire assay plate.
