One automated system for smarter screening and deeper characterization for all modalities
Biacore™ 8S and Biacore™ 8S+ SPR systems flex between rapid screening of drug candidates and high‑precision runs for full binding characterization within a single platform, enabled by a parallel eight‑channel, 16‑flow‑cell configuration and multiple microplate capacity.
Speed to results
- Rapid screening and quantification: Screen 384 proteins in 15 minutes and estimate protein concentration for 384 crude samples in 24 minutes.
- Efficient target use: Save up to 50% of target during off‑rate ranking without sacrificing data quality.
- Fast, confident kinetics: Generate accurate kinetics for 48 samples in less than 2.5 hours, spanning fast and slow interactions.
Scalable workflows
- Parallel, flexible throughput: Eight‑needle setup with 8 or 16 flow cells.
- High‑capacity automation: Integrated liquid and plate handling for up to twelve 96‑ or 384‑well plates.
- True walk‑away operation: Stack runs for up to 72 hours unattended, maximizing insight while saving time and sample.
Sensitivity for data confidence
- High sensitivity: Confident analysis of fragments and small molecules, with no lower molecular weight limit and detection down to 1 pM.
- Reliable kinetics: Stable, sensitive measurements across fast and slow on‑ and off‑rates.
- High‑resolution accuracy: Flow‑based design minimizes mass transport effects and rebinding for cleaner data

Future-ready SPR for a fast-moving world
Modern drug discovery and development increasingly involve challenging targets and large screening sets that require analysis flexibility with faster and sharper insight into mechanisms of action and detailed binding characteristics.
