Fluidity One-W Serum

Quantify protein interactions in complex backgrounds

Fluidity One systems offer a novel approach to determine affinity (KD), size, concentration, and stoichiometric information when a labeled protein interacts with DNA, lipids, antigens or other proteins

Characterize protein interactions in crude lysates, serum or plasma

Eliminate risk of binding artefacts or other surface constraints by measuring protein interactions directly in solution

Determine KD and concentration simultaneously

Measure antibody affinity profiles
directly in minimally diluted
serum or plasma

Comprehensively assess immune response

Quantify immune responses to antigens
Quantify viral neutralization capacity

What are customers saying about us

Don’t just take it from us, here is what are customers saying

Prof Adriano Aguzzi
University Hopsital Zurich

‘The Fluidity One-W Serum is the breakthrough that gives us invaluable new insights & could be a game-changer for our ability to understand, diagnose & treat COVID-19’

Prof Akiko Iwasaki
Yale School of Medicine

‘The Fluidity One-W Serum provided an unprecedented level of granularity to identify the mode of action by which SARS-CoV-2 variants spike escape humoral immune response’

Measure directly in complex sample backgrounds

Antibody-affinity profiling in serum – SARS-COV-2 anti-spike S1 antibody against SARS-CoV-2 RBD (receptor binding domain)

  • Measure close to physiologically-relevant conditions
  • Reduce or eliminate time-consuming purification steps
  • Minimize risk of dilution effects
  • Minimize sample consumption – 60-100 μL* sample per KD

Results independent of sample background

Antibody-affinity profiling – SARS-COV-2 anti-spike S1 antibody against SARS-CoV-2 RBD

  • Measurements in buffer or complex backgrounds, provide corresponding results
  • Quantitative analysis of protein–protein interactions (KD and binding-site concentrations)
  • Determine affinity, KD, and absolute concentration of antibody binding sites

Determine affinity and concentration with one technique

Immunoprofiling in serum during infection – Characterizing the immune response to viral infections

 

A collaboration with Prof. Adriano Aguzzi and Prof. Tuomas Knowles.

  • No correlation between affinity or concentration and disease severity – Hospitalized and non-hospitalized COVID-19 patients in same cluster
  • Affinity KD spans significantly wider range than concentration
