The Binding Site, which provides specialist diagnostic products to clinicians and laboratory professionals worldwide, launched its new optimized protein system, Optilite in the Middle East, at MEDLAB 2017, the world’s largest laboratory exhibition and congress in the region.

Binding Site focuses on research, development, manufacture and distribution of immunodiagnostic systems and assays for the global laboratory market. By utilizing its specialized expertise in antibody specificity technology, it has developed a broad menu of special protein assays. Binding Site gives clinicians and laboratory staff the tools to significantly improve diagnosis and management of patients with specific cancers and immune disorders.

The company has designed Optilite, a dedicated benchtop special protein analyzer, specifically for laboratory workflow optimization. Optilite’s continuous loading of samples, reagents, and consumables plus automatic re-dilution to end result enable labs to maximize test throughput while minimizing hands-on time. With a compact benchtop design, Optilite is quick to install, easy to maintain, and is equipped with full LIS connectivity and automatic barcode recognition for full traceability. Unique to Optilite is a robust antigen excess protection system with three detection methods, thereby ensuring accurate and reliable results.
