The iBind™ Western System is an automated western processing device. It’s hands-free, reproducible, powerless and compatible with western protocols. The blocking, primary and secondary antibody incubation and wash steps occur via sequential lateral flow (SLF) technology. SLF allows for the timely release of primary and secondary antibodies through mechanical pressure applied from the device onto the iBind™ Card. Glass fiber embedded in the iBind™ Card allows the antibody and wash solutions to flow at a constant rate over the western membrane. An absorbent stack attached to one end of the iBind™ Card functions to pull liquid across the card and membrane. The iBind™ Western System provides automated convenience and superior sensitivity and reproducibility compared to traditional manual methods without the need for any external power source.

Simple to use:

Time savings:

Superior western performance compared to manual blotting:
