There is a growing need to streamline research workflows to get results faster and with greater throughput while minimizing effort at the bench, without compromising precision and accuracy. Equipped with user‑friendly interfaces that guide you from assay design to data analysis, our next gen SPR instruments Alto™ and OpenSPR® bring efficiency to biomolecular binding analysis.
Alto™ leverages digital microfluidics technology to automate high-throughput SPR analysis while enabling crude sample compatibility, ultra low sample volumes, and cloud-first software connection. OpenSPR® is an easy-to-use and cost effective platform with a proven track record, backed by over 300 peer-reviewed studies across research areas including immunology, oncology and infectious diseases.
Join us in a conversation with Daryl Good, Customer Success Manager, and Michael Piazza, Associate Director of Applications Development, as we delve into the applications of our Alto™ and OpenSPR® systems for streamlining biomolecular characterization, including affinity and kinetics analysis, epitope binning, library screening, and quantitation.

Viruses are known to be highly susceptible to mutations, often resulting in the emergence of variant strains. While some will disappear, others will persist and challenge our global healthcare system, just as we saw with the COVID-19 pandemic.
The pandemic is the most recent example of why rapid development of new detection strategies is more crucial than ever, especially when new variants demonstrate improved transmissibility or virulence. Co-presented by OCMS Bio and Nicoya Lifesciences, this webinar will present current strategies being applied in antibody discovery to accelerate the development of diagnostic tools for emerging viral variants.
Join us in a conversation with Scott Dessain (OCMS) and Marko Jovic (Nicoya), who will discuss the application of novel mAb screening technology and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for rapid discovery and characterization of variant-specific antibodies, and will delve into the future of immunodiagnostics.

Biospecific interactions play a major role in fundamental biological processes, and the advent of label-free detection tools has greatly enhanced our ability to characterize and better understand these biological systems. Yet, our ability to automate and scale our efforts has been limited by the need for a hands-on approach when it comes to understanding and optimizing the underlying biology.

By January 2021, just over a year after the virus was first identified, there were over 100 million cases of COVID-19 reported worldwide and several viral variants in circulation. The unprecedented nature of the pandemic has magnified the need for accelerated scientific discoveries as researchers strive to bring novel therapeutics, vaccines and diagnostic solutions to market.

As a result of technological innovation and desire for improved efficiency, the world is becoming increasingly automated, there’s really no question about it and research labs are no exception. Heck, Alexa is more commonly known as a virtual assistant than a human name at this point.
Automation allows for a reduction in human error, and allows for fewer people to run more experiments efficiently. As of recently, with physical-distancing guidelines implemented as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic, reducing the number of people in the lab has become of utmost importance to keep research flowing smoothly.

Are you preparing to return to your lab, or are you in the middle of figuring out how to scale up your workflow? It is no question that researchers returning to the lab are facing challenges unlike ever before, as they navigate a new research landscape that continues being shaped by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Staying connected to your team, keeping up with new safety protocols, and managing uncertainty about your funding are just a few of the many challenges you are now having to overcome.
