The Leica Bond-Max is a fully automated immunohistochemistry (IHC) and in situ hybridisation (ISH) staining platform developed by Leica Biosystems. It is designed for high-throughput histopathology laboratories requiring consistent, walk-away automated staining across a wide range of diagnostic applications.
The Bond-Max system processes up to 30 slides per run and supports parallel processing across multiple modules. Its closed, single-use reagent system minimises cross-contamination risk, while the Bond polymer detection chemistry delivers high sensitivity and specificity. The system is widely used in clinical pathology, oncology diagnostics, and research environments.
