Lipid-based Protein Immobilization
The Lipid-based Protein immobilization technology (LiPi™), developed in collaboration with pharmaceutical and academic groups, enables immobilization of native membrane proteins in the form of proteoliposomes, generated directly from cells or tissue.
The LiPi™ technology is based on the use of proprietary surfaces and sample preparation protocols designed to retain the natural environment around the membrane proteins. The membrane proteins can be subjected to a variety of protocols in a highly controlled manner, to provide effective and precise preparation of samples for downstream analysis.
LiPi™ FlowCell is the first product based on the LiPi™ technology and is used in applications such as functional studies, absolute quantification, epitope identification and sequencing studies amongst others. Additional products are in development, where other formats will complement LiPi™ FlowCell and allow straightforward expansion of experimental protocols and applications.
