Biacore Sensor Chip SA applications

Biotin has become a popular molecular tag for capture and interaction studies because it is stable and rarely interferes with target activity or structure due to its small size. Biotin can be conveniently conjugated to a wide range of target molecules by chemical or enzymatic means. Applications for Sensor Chip SA are therefore broad. Examples include:

• capture of intact liposomes for protein-membrane interaction studies
• screening of endocrine-disrupting chemicals
• elucidating DNA- and RNA- mediated mechanisms of catechins in cancer prevention

Sensor chip formats for Biacore systems

Biacore sensor chips are available in two formats:

• “S series” sensor chips are for use with Biacore 8K+, Biacore 8K, Biacore S200, Biacore T200, and Biacore 4000 SPR systems.
• Sensor chips not designated with “S series” are designed for Biacore X100, Biacore 3000 and Biacore C SPR systems.
