LeviSelect Kits are a targeted expansion of the revolutionary LeviCell™ Advanced Workflow fully integrated protocol that delivers an important new approach to cellular isolation and analysis, offering:

  • Cells of interest are entirely label-free, unmodified or unperturbed with no gene expression or activation changes
  • Live-cell enrichment, debris removal, and targeted selection all occur in a single simple step with no additional purifications, filtrations or consumables required
  • Multiple LeviSelect kits can be multiplexed for a powerful and extremely targeted approach

For oncology or immuno-oncology research, LeviSelect CD45 Depletion Kits provide a highly effective method for the enrichment of pure tumor cells enabling characterization for drug discovery and biomarker identification.

LeviSelect Immune Kits support target selection of the immune subpopulations required for downstream cell analysis or further subsetting. Researchers can enrich hematopoietic populations quickly without lengthy workflows or potential cell activation.

  • CD3 Enrichment
  • CD4 Enrichment
  • CD8 Enrichment
  • Pan B Enrichment
  • Pan Monocyte Enrichment
  • NK Cell Enrichment
  • Neutrophil Enrichment

Now T Cells, B Cells, NK Cell and Monocytes can be enriched simultaneously with viable cell enrichment in an untouched and unbiased manner. Future LeviSelect kits will include subtypes from these major populations.

“With the immediate launch of seven LeviSelect Kits—and six more available via our Early Access program—LevitasBio is enabling the streamline enrichment of these cells for downstream cell-based assays or immune profiling studies,” stated Martin Pieprzyk, CEO of LevitasBio. “This is highly impactful to catalyze novel discoveries in both academic and biopharma discovery research.”

Researchers, scientists, and labs who would like exclusive, priority access to future LeviSelect Kits can join the LevitasBio Early Access Program at https://levitasbio.com/early-access-program.

LevitasBio —True Biology Begins Here

Our mission is to advance science and human health by providing researchers with new and powerful methods of cellular analysis. LevitasBio delivers the first truly novel approach to cellular analysis in 30 years. Our proprietary label-free levitation technology enables researchers to rescue and achieve higher quality and quantity of cells without introducing bias, high pressure, or modifications to gene expression profiles, ensuring the integrity of downstream data and analysis is maintained.

ROYC and Stilla Enter Strategic Partnership to Operationalise Agentic AI in Private Markets26.5.2026 11:30:00 EEST | Press release

ROYC today announced a partnership with Stilla.ai as the platform layer where ROYC will create, share and run its internally developed AI skills and agents. This operationalises the agentic AI strategy ROYC set out earlier, equipping every function across the company with the tools and resources to build and deploy their own AI agents and converting this into measurable productivity gains and accelerated product development. This will substantially accelerate launch of new platform features, improving cost efficiency at the same time as strengthening overall governance and oversight. For ROYC’s customers and partners, the result will be shorter time-to-market for new product releases, shorter time frames moving from idea to productification and tailored customer experience from an investor services perspective. “Our strategy is clear: AI is embedded in every aspect of our ways of working and what the ROYC Operating System does, not a side project,” said Peter Bergenwald, CTO of ROYC. “
