Optimized reagent flow cards for automated western blot processing with the iBind™ Flex Western Device
The Invitrogen™ iBind™ Flex Cards are specially designed for use with the iBind™ Flex Western Device, enabling fully automated western blot processing from blocking to antibody incubations and washes via sequential lateral flow (SLF) technology.
Each card features a glass fiber matrix engineered for uniform and consistent delivery of immunodetection solutions across the membrane, maximizing antigen–antibody interaction and improving detection sensitivity. The SLF process ensures controlled reagent release without the need for external power, shakers, or trays.
When combined with the iBind™ Flex Western Device and either the iBind™ Flex Solution Kit or iBind™ Flex Fluorescent Detection (FD) Solution Kit, these cards provide a streamlined, reproducible workflow for a wide range of detection chemistries.
Key Features & Benefits
- Optimized Flow Technology – Glass fiber matrix ensures consistent and homogenous reagent delivery.
- Flexible Blot Capacity – Processes one midi blot, two mini blots, or six vertically-cut strip blots per card.
- Automation-Ready – Designed exclusively for the iBind™ Flex Western Device.
- Versatile Detection – Compatible with chromogenic, chemiluminescent, and fluorescent detection.
- Membrane Compatibility – Suitable for both nitrocellulose and PVDF membranes.
- Convenient Storage – Room-temperature stable for ease of use.
Applications
- Automated western blot protein detection
- Fluorescence, chemiluminescence, and chromogenic immunodetection workflows
- Standardized antigen–antibody interaction assays
- Flexible throughput blot processing
