Bio-layer Interferometer Leasing for Labs
Measure biomolecular interactions in real time—without tying up your budget. Lease the biolayer interferometer that fits your workflow.
What Is Bio-Layer Interferometry (BLI)?
BLI is an optical biosensing technique that detects molecular interactions in real time, without the need for labels. It's widely used to measure binding affinity, kinetics, and concentration in antibody discovery, vaccine development, and protein-protein interaction studies. The technique supports rapid screening and characterization workflows while minimizing sample consumption and assay complexity.
Why Lease a BLI System?
BLI has become a powerful alternative to traditional biosensing techniques like SPR—enabling high-throughput, label-free analysis of molecular binding. But top-tier BLI systems come at a high price, often limiting access for smaller labs, early-stage biotechs, or CROs.
Leasing removes those barriers, giving you immediate access to the latest BLI platforms without large capital outlays. It’s ideal for teams advancing antibody discovery, optimizing binding kinetics, or validating biotherapeutic interactions. Leasing also offers room to scale as project scope and throughput requirements change.
Where Leasing a BLI System Adds Value
Leasing is especially valuable when:
- You’re validating protein interactions and need rapid, reliable kinetic data without a high upfront spend.
- Your workflows require parallel analysis, microplate integration, or regeneration support—but capital is tied up elsewhere.
- You’re expanding R&D programs and need scalable access to high-throughput binding studies.
Whether you’re measuring affinity constants or confirming specificity, leasing a BLI helps you move faster and smarter—without locking up your budget.

Helping Scientists Scale & Succeed
"We used Excedr when it was time for us to make a large capital equipment purchase. The whole leasing process was smooth, quick, and seamless.
Working with Excedr made it possible for us to accelerate our scientific discovery pipeline without a large outlay of capital."
Jessica Grossman
CEO, IgGenix
"Excedr's lease structure helped us extend our cash runway, forecast our projects with greater accuracy, and track and manage upcoming expenses more effectively, putting us in a stronger position for our next venture round."
Shawn Gahr
COO & Co-Founder, Novoron
"Building a biotech is tough, and Excedr has been a dynamite partner in scaling. They supported Distributed Bio’s growth from an 8-person lab team to 35 members by the time of acquisition.
When I started Centivax, Jon was one of the first people I called. I recommend them for any biotech startup."
Jacob Glanville
CEO & President, Centivax
"Excedr has been invaluable for KiraGen Bio, helping us access high-quality equipment without heavy upfront costs.
Their flexible leasing and reliable support let us focus on advancing research rather than equipment procurement and maintenance."
Aaron Edwards
Co-Founder & CEO, KiraGen Bio
"Excedr helped us finance a BLI system when we were new to equipment leasing.
Sylvia guided us through our options, and the fast, easy process freed our team to focus on research and grant management instead of funding logistics."
Max Brennan
General Counsel & VP Operations, Zab Bio
“Leasing our Zeiss EVO10 electron microscope cut outside analysis costs in the first year and improved response times to field issues.
Having it on-site also strengthened our Engineering and Production Teams’ understanding of our product lines."
