I have a Fida 1 and would like to upgrade to a newer instrument. What are my options?

Yes, you can upgrade. Fidabio runs a standing offer for existing Fida users, and it works two ways: you can exchange your current instrument for the newest model, or keep it and add a new one alongside it. Both routes are priced specially for users who already own a Fida instrument.

To start, fill in the request a quote form and say which instrument you currently run. You can also write to orders@fidabio.com or go through your regional sales representative. Whichever route you take, someone will come back to you within three business days.

Which model would I be upgrading to?

The product page has the current line-up and what each model measures. The newest instrument is Fida Evolve, and the Fida Evolve technology brochure sets out what it does: three simultaneous measurements, absolute molecular size as hydrodynamic radius, Lambda Dynamics and Binding Related Intensity Change, giving more than ten readouts from nanolitre to microlitre samples, label free.
