Introducing the Reichert2SPR The best 2-channel SPR value you can buy
Choose the 2-channel surface plasmon resonance (SPR) system that lets you do more — and costs up to 30% less than the leading competitor. The Reichert2SPR System pushes the limits of detection and sensitivity, which is why it’s used by leading universities, academic facilities and biotech startups around the world for label-free biomolecular interaction analysis.
Compare the Reichert2SPR to Biacore’s X100
The Reichert2SPR – Reichert’s SR7500DC system is the smart choice for scientists and lab managers. Reichert surface plasmon resonance instruments provide a highly sensitive and flexible platform to meet the demands of a variety of applications. In comparison with the Biacore X100, Reichert’s maintenance costs, autosampler capacity, and sensitivity make it the obvious choice.

Save up to 30% with Reichert — the affordable choice
Spend less money on equipment and maintenance — and more on your research — when you choose Reichert. In fact, the typical research lab can save $17,000 per year, per system, compared to the leading competitor. That’s $85,000 over the next five years — valuable funds that you can use for your staff and other critical research needs.
LOWER EQUIPMENT COSTS
Purchasing the Reichert2SPR System typically costs $25,000 less than the leading competitor.
LOWER OPERATING COSTS
Every SPR machine requires chips to couple proteins to. A typical lab can use 75–200 sensor chips each year, which is why you should always ask about the cost of chips when you’re considering an SPR system. At Reichert, our high-quality chips are often less than half the price of our competitors, so you can run more experiments without worrying about out-of-control costs.
NO COSTLY SERVICE CONTRACT REQUIRED
Other SPR companies make you purchase a service contract, which can easily cost up to $150,000 over the course of five years. With the Reichert2SPR System, all of the typical parts that need maintenance are easy for you to access (and service) yourself. Of course, we do offer service contracts, if you would rather let us handle the regular maintenance.
Key Benefits
Open System = High-Quality Data, More Flexibility
GET HIGH-QUALITY, PUBLICATION-READY DATA
The Reichert2SPR System offers significant advantages for researchers and scientists. Whether you’re working with simple solutions or more challenging assays, you can count on Reichert to offer:
- High sensitivity — study protein interactions with low molecular weight (down to approximately 100Da) compounds; enhanced sensitivity also makes the Reichert2SPR System ideal for:
- High quality kinetic analysis
- Affinity measurements for weak or strong interactions (ranging from 1mM to 1pM)
- Precise determination of thermodynamic parameters
- Accurate concentration analysis
- Industry-leading low drift (0.1 μRIU/min)
- Extremely low noise (0.05 μRIU rms)
- Faster baseline stability — the Reichert2SPR System stabilizes 2x-3x faster than the competition, due to our streamlined fluidics
- High sample capacity (up to 768 samples per run)
OPEN SYSTEM = MORE CONTROL, MORE FLEXIBILITY, MORE TIME FOR RESEARCH
Other SPR systems only allow for limited access to critical parts. But with Reichert, everything you need to access is right out in the open, which makes your life — and your research — much easier.
EASY TO CHANGE AS YOUR RESEARCH EVOLVES
The Reichert2SPR System is designed to be as flexible as possible, from changeable tubes to an easily accessible flow cell. Wherever your research takes you in the future, you can be rest assured that Reichert will let you stay on track, without costly upgrades and changes.
5-MINUTE TUBING CHANGES
With Reichert, you can change the tubing whenever you want in just minutes — without having to wait around for a service call. That’s because all Reichert SPR systems are designed to use low-cost, off-the-shelf HPLC fittings and tubing that are easily accessible to you and your staff. With Reichert, you can:
- Change the tubing to different sizes
- Accommodate a wide range of sample compositions (from pure soluble solutions to cell lysates), varying viscosities, and particulate matter
- Run crude samples without having to purify them — saving you time and providing even greater flexibility — without risking costly delays and service calls; crude samples include:
- Whole cells
- Viruses
- Lysates
- Serum
- Aggregates
- Stop worrying about clogs — if a tube is damaged, blocked or clogged, you can replace it yourself in just a few minutes, using standard tubing
