Label-free interaction analysis is of increasing importance for scientists in the fields of academic, pharmaceutical, biotechnology and diagnostic. SPR-based systems generate unique data on the interactions between proteins and other molecules, including small molecule drug candidates. During research, development and manufacture, these data give insights into protein functionality, elucidate disease mechanisms and play a key role in the critical decisions needed for efficient development and production of therapeutics.
SPR systems are used in areas such as pharmaceutical drug discovery, antibody characterization, proteomics, immunogenicity, biotherapeutic development and manufacture, and many life science research applications. In the food analysis market, such a system and ready-to-use kits provide key manufacturers with the ability to determine quality and safety in areas such as quantification of vitamin content. Some of the major applications utilizing the valuable information derived from SPR include :
- Screening for binding partners and ranking of binding ability, for instance in drug discovery and biopharmaceutical development
- Determination of simultaneous interaction capabilities, for example epitope mapping with monoclonal antibodies
- Detection of specific molecules such as anti-drug antibodies in immunogenicity studies.
- Determination of interactant concentration in samples, from measurements under conditions where interaction levels can be related to concentration
- Measurement of interaction kinetics and affinity, made possible by real-time detection of interaction events

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) based instruments use an optical method to measure the changes in refractive index within about 150 nm from the sensor surface. They monitor molecular interactions in real time, using a non-invasive label-free technology that responds to changes in the concentration of molecules at a sensor surface as molecules bind to or dissociate from the surface. The essential components of a Biacore analytical system are sensor chip, optical detector and integrated microfluidic cartridge (IFC) (Figure 1). To study the interaction between two binding partners, one partner is attached to the sensor surface (ligand) and the other is passed over the surface through flow cells in sample solution (analyte). As the analyte binds to the ligand the accumulation of protein on the sensor surface causes an increase in refractive index. A sensorgram is a plot of response against time, showing the progress of the interaction (Figure 2). The SPR response is directly proportional to the change in mass concentration close to the surface.
The system can be used to study interactions involving any kind of molecule, from organic drug candidates to proteins, nucleic acids, glycoproteins and even viruses and whole cells. Since the response is a measure of the change in mass concentration, the response per molar unit of interactant is proportional to the molecular weight (smaller molecules give lower molar responses). The detection principle does not require any of the interactants to be labeled, and measurements can be performed on complex mixtures such as cell culture supernatants or cell extracts as well as purified interactants. The identity of the interactant monitored in a complex sample matrix is determined by the interaction specificity of the partner attached to the surface. The SPR detection principle is non-invasive and works equally well on clear and colored or opaque samples. The system uses a range of sensor surfaces with a controlled flow system (comprising 4 flow cells) for delivery of samples and reagents to the sensor surface.
