Custom lyophilization with LyoMax CyTOF Panels

Customized by design. Standardized at scale.

LyoMax CyTOF™ Panels are fully tailored, ready-to-use lyophilized assays, developed through the SBI Custom Lyophilization Service.

Why choose LyoMax™ Panels?

Highest parameters – surface and intracellular – in a dry assay

Tailored design with catalog antibodies or your markers of interest

Easy single-tube workflow – just add samples

Reproducible results across cohorts and sites

Guided expert support– assay design, optimization and confirmation

Your custom panel -in a stable, lyophilized format

Lyophilizing antibody panels in a stable, dry format is a proven method that eliminates the variability and manual preparation associated with liquid antibody cocktails and delivers reproducibility, long-term stability and simplified workflows.

Save time. Just add samples.

✓ A ready-to-use assay that eliminates variability and reduces errors from liquid pipetting and panel preparation

✓ Available in large batches of standardized lots, LyoMax Panels are purposebuilt to support large-scale, longitudinal and multi-site clinical studies with consistency and ease

Read the LyoMax Panels technical note

Save time and resources – let our experts do the labeling and quality control for you.

Flexible – expand your CyTOF panels by adding metal-labeled targets not yet available in the Maxpar catalog.

Expertise – professional technicians ensure consistently high-quality and reliable performance.

Custom conjugation workflow – select the desired isotope from our 51 high purity metal tags, decide which confirmation method you prefer – biochemical analysis or more extensive biological functional testing – and place your order.

After our expert scientists perform the conjugation and analysis, we’ll send your antibody conjugate along with a detailed analytic report.

Ligands and buffer suitable for custom conjugation – IgG monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies are routinely conjugated. The feasibility of conjugating other antibody isotypes and proteins is considered on a case-by-case basis. To facilitate labeling, ligands must be provided purified, unconjugated and in a protein-free buffer at minimum concentration of 0.5 mg/mL.

Source of antibodies – Antibodies to be custom conjugated may be either provided by the customer or purchased from a commercial source. Where Standard BioTools purchases an antibody on behalf of a customer, the cost is quoted and billed as a separate line item, PN 3999999-3, Antibody Material Handling Charge.

Quality control – All custom conjugations are subject to rigorous biochemical confirmation, including inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, determination of concentration and yield and assessment of ratio of attachment of metal atoms to antibody. Optionally available biological confirmation service involves empirical testing by CyTOF technology on cells, with optimal titer determined and the conjugate formulated for delivery in a 100-test vial.
