New! BindGuard™ Low Binding / NSB Treatment
Published: June 29, 2026BindGuard™ is an excellent choice when working with hydrophobic compounds (peptides and small molecules) that otherwise suffer non-specific binding (NSB) to hydrophobic polymer surfaces, such as polypropylene. BindGuard™ is NOT a surface coating like Analytical’s SiliGuard™ . It is a surface treatment that permanently alters the nature of polypropylene and polystyrene (well plates, tubes, pipette tips, etc.), and ultimately provides another option for the mitigation of NSB (non-specific binding).
Technical Notes
• BindGuard™ is compatible with polystyrene well plates (SiliGuard™ is not).
• BindGuard™ is NOT compatible with PFAS compounds/applications.
• BindGuard™ provides a durable, chemically resistant, hydrophilic surface.
