Request Your Free Phoretix 1D Trial

Automated western blot and 1D gel analysis, with no obligation.

Evaluate Phoretix 1D on your own gel and blot images in minutes. Our team will send you a free trial license and a short getting-started guide so you can see how automated lane detection, intelligent band picking, background subtraction and molecular weight calibration work with your real experimental data. No sales pressure, no commitment, and no IT installation headaches.

Why scientists switch to Phoretix 1D

Phoretix 1D is designed for researchers who’ve outgrown free or legacy tools. If you’ve been wrestling with any of these, the trial is worth your time:

• Hours lost to manual band picking in ImageJ. Phoretix 1D’s automated band detection handles this in seconds, with optional manual adjustment if you want to tweak.
• Inconsistent analysis between lab members or between labs. Phoretix 1D minimizes inter-operator variability by removing the subjective steps.
• Image Lab or Image Studio locked to one manufacturer’s scanner. Phoretix 1D is fully vendor-neutral and works with every major scanner brand (Bio-Rad, Cytiva, Azure, Thermo Fisher, Syngene, Vilber, and others).
• Fragmented workflows between multiple tools. Phoretix 1D is a single integrated platform: import, detect, quantify, calibrate, normalize, report.
• Needing 21 CFR Part 11 or GMP compliance for a regulated workflow. With AuditSafe, Phoretix 1D is deployable in regulated pharma environments.

What existing users say

“After having used many other software for gel image analysis, including Bio-Rad’s Image Lab and ImageJ, I started using Phoretix 1D out of necessity in a new role. I found it to be much more intuitive and streamlined than what I’ve used in the past. Background subtraction, band picking, and band analysis are all automated with optional manual adjustment if desired.”

Garry Smith, Proliant Health and Biologicals

“Phoretix 1D allows for the fast and accurate analysis of immunoblots, supported by optimal control over quantification parameters allowing for the generation of highly reproducible data. All features are embedded within a user-friendly interface.”

Jacqueline Kaiser, The University of Melbourne

“In our research laboratory, Phoretix 1D has proven to be a highly reliable and versatile tool for gel-based analysis. Its intuitive interface and robust quantification capabilities streamline data analysis and enhance reproducibility across experiments.”

Melisa Merdanovic, University Duisburg-Essen
