Traditional biophysical characterisation often misses the rare conformations that lead to off-target effects or poor stability.

The EI-FLEX Pro offers an end-to-end, confocal benchtop system that rapidly reveals physiologically-relevant behaviour without immobilising targets or requiring large sample volumes, all at single-molecule precision.

This is ideal for validating PROTAC-induced ternary complexes, understanding conformational dynamics, characterising antibody-target engagement, or analysing protein aggregation with the quantitative precision of a specialist lab plus the ease required for modern pharmaceutical R&D.

The Exciting Ecosystem — Widget

The Exciting Ecosystem: one stack from label design to discovery

Most instruments solve one step. We built a platform that connects all of them — so you spend less time stitching workflows together and more time doing science.

01 — DESIGN

Choose where to label

Our tools and team help you identify optimal labelling positions - maximising signal without disrupting your molecule's native behaviour.

LABEL DESIGN
02 — PREPARE

Express labelled constructs

From dye selection to conjugation strategy, we'll guide you through sample preparation that works first time — or run it for you.

SAMPLE PREP
03 — MEASURE

Capture every molecule

The EI-FLEX Pro does the heavy lifting. Confocal detection, automated acquisition, and real-time single-molecule sensitivity — all on your benchtop.

EI-FLEX PRO
04 — DISCOVER

Analyse and publish

Integrated software takes you from raw photons to publication-ready figures. FRET histograms, FCS curves, burst analysis — no third-party tools required.

INTEGRATED SOFTWARE

Real-time single-molecule confidence

Resolve molecular heterogeneity early to ensure a more predictable path to the clinic.

Maximise lab ROI

Benchtop footprint with no darkrooms or specialist training required - plus sample to answer in less than a day.

Experimental design and demonstration

Guidance from world-class single-molecule experts and proof-of-concept sample runs.

Accelerate throughput

Modular design with seamless upgrade to high throughput acquisition (96 and 384 well plate formats).

What our customers say
Dr Steve Quinn

"What sets EI-FLEX apart is its versatility - it's our go-to for probing kinetics and conformational changes that the other systems can't fully resolve. This opens up a range of research for us that was previously impossible."

“Solution-based measurements, like those taken using the EI-FLEX, avoid surface tethering, which can introduce artefacts, especially for proteins that don’t behave well near hydrophobic surfaces. Keeping proteins in solution lets you observe their native conformation, and it’s much easier experimentally: you label, dilute, and measure, often getting results in minutes rather than days or weeks with TIRF-based systems.

"It has opened up new avenues of research because of the combined FCS, FCCS and single-molecule FRET capabilities. The high performance, stability and precision of the EI-FLEX instrument have really been a game-changer for experiments where sensitivity to picomolar concentration of biomolecules really matters."
