Alto Digital SPR

Alto is the world’s first SPR instrument to integrate digital microfluidics (DMF) with nanotechnology-based biosensors.

DMF technology enables all fluidics to be disposable, allowing for precise handling of 2µL sample volumes, crude sample compatibility and zero fluidics maintenance. Alto’s compatibility with automation for both hardware and software provides sample-in/answer-out data, industry-leading throughput, and 24+ hours of unattended run time.

Every aspect of Alto is designed with user-friendliness and accessibility in mind-from the flexible 16 channel design to the intuitive data analysis platform.

Advantages of using DMF-powered SPR

  • Decoupling of flow rate and sensor position from dispersion, increasing data quality
  • Up to 200X less sample volume required – get full kinetics from a 2µL sample volume
  • Decoupling of interaction time from sample volume, increasing assay flexibility
  • Automated serial dilutions – reducing human error and saving time
