Ion Exchange Chromatography System Leasing for Labs
Lease the IEX system that fits your workflow. Separate charged biomolecules with precision—without tying up your budget.
What Is Ion Exchange Chromatography?
Ion exchange chromatography (IEX) separates molecules based on their charge by using resins that attract and bind positively or negatively charged species. It’s commonly used for protein purification, water quality analysis, and nucleic acid separation. By adjusting pH and salt gradients, IEX enables selective, high-resolution purification across a wide range of biomolecules.
Why Lease an IEX System
IEX is a critical technique in downstream bioprocessing, quality control, and analytical purification—offering high resolution and scalability across multiple sample types. But acquiring the right system, especially when paired with automated gradient controls, fraction collectors, and multiple detectors, can require a significant capital outlay.
Leasing helps you access high-performance chromatography systems without financial delays. It’s an ideal option for biopharma teams, academic researchers, and QC labs working on protein purification, nucleotide separation, or charged molecule analysis. Leasing also offers the flexibility to scale or upgrade as your throughput or workflow complexity evolves.
Where Leasing an IEX System Adds Value
Ion exchange chromatography (IEX) is essential for separating and purifying charged biomolecules, particularly proteins, peptides, and nucleic acids. But high-performance IEX systems—with gradient capabilities, advanced detection, and modular scalability—can be costly to acquire upfront.
Leasing can be a smart choice when:
- You’re scaling downstream purification or replacing legacy systems—Access advanced IEX platforms without capital delays.
- You need precise pH control, gradient flexibility, or multi-mode detection—Lease systems that match evolving separation needs.
- You want to preserve budget for reagents, staffing, or validation tools—Maintain operational flexibility without compromising performance.
Whether you're supporting GMP production or optimizing purification methods in early research, leasing an IEX chromatography system helps you stay responsive, reliable, and cost-efficient.

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."
