The Leica Biosystems BOND RX is a fully automated slide staining system designed for advanced research applications in immunohistochemistry (IHC), in situ hybridization (ISH), and multiplex assays. It provides flexible, user-defined protocols, enabling researchers to optimize staining workflows for biomarker discovery and translational research.
Unlike clinical-only platforms, the BOND RX is built specifically for research use, offering full protocol customization, open reagent systems, and support for complex multi-step assays. It automates the entire staining process—from deparaffinization and antigen retrieval to staining and counterstaining—ensuring reproducibility and efficiency.
