## SYNOPSIS FT Raman spectra of avidin, streptavidin, and of the two anhydrous biotin complexes were obtained by excitation in near infrared ( NIR) . As far as avidin and the avidin-biotin complex are concerned, the excitation in NIR did not change the main features of the spectra compared with th

The binding of avidin (Avi) with biotin (Bio) and some Bio analogues (biotin methyl ester, desthiobiotin, 2ºiminobiotin and diaminobiotin) was studied by means of Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy. The di †erence in affinity between the protein and these ligands provides a detailed picture of the
Protein multilayers were prepared on silica surfaces by up to 20 alternating incubations of a biotin-protein conjugate and polymerized streptavidin. Spectroscopic ellipsometry (350-750 nm) was used to investigate the physical thickness and the dispersion of the protein layer after each incubation st
Raman spectra of anhydrous complexes of streptavidin (Strep) with biotin (Bio) and some Bio analogues [Biotin methyl ester (MEBio), desthiobiotin (DEBio), 2-iminobiotin (IMBio), and diaminobiotin (DABio)] were recorded. The vibrational results indicate that the interaction with some of these ligands
