QCM based Molecular Interaction Analyzer

There are typical methods of sample immobilization here.

Please feel free to contact us for further information on way of immobilization.

By using micropipette, inject guest sample into buffer solution in the glass cup (or acrylic sensor cell).

Binding monitoring

Specific binding behavior depends on sample concentration and binding rate can be observed.

Oscillation frequency can be monitored by 1 data point per second and up to 240 hours at maximum.

Analysis

AFFINIX series instruments can measure and analyze the following 4 kinds of key factors by monitoring oscillation frequency change.

1. Confirm specific binding (YES/NO binding)
2. Quantify binding amount of host and guest samples
3. Analyze binding affinity (Equilibrium analysis): (Optional software “AQUA” used)
4. Analyze binding rate (Kinetic analysis): (Optional software “AQUA” used)

Optional analysis software “AQUA” offers more easier and smoother analysis.
