With surface plasmon resonance detection it is possible to measure the binding kinetics between a macromolecule in solution and a receptor immobilized on a sensor surface. The detector response is proportional to the mass of the analyte that binds to the surface, and therefore, a direct observation

✦ Synopsis
Ligand design in biotechnology is underpinned by the control of molecular affinity. Hence, measuring binding interactions is a key component in designing ligands for such uses as therapeutics, diagnostics, biomaterials and separation science. Mass transport, kinetic and thermodynamic methods have been used for macromolecular interaction analysis but also have potential applicability as direct methods for measuring small molecular interactions. They can enhance the ligand design process by providing the ability to choose ligands based on both their kinetic and thermodynamic binding properties.
