Update on Technology & Applications

Posted on by

Our Technology & Applications web page has been thoroughly updated. We describe the functional principles behind label-enhanced SPR and how its strongly improved performance translates into benefits in different applications. Some interesting new references are also added.

Summary

The label-enhanced SPR technology of Episentec offers the following benefits:

  • Enhanced sensitivity: signal-to-noise ratio increased 100-fold.
  • Enhanced specificity: measurement is fully specific with respect to the dye label.
  • Compatibility with standard commercial SPR instruments.
  • Label-enhanced and label-free SPR simultaneously and in parallel.
  • Label-free analysis with outstanding sensitivity in competitive format.
  • Constant signal per bound molecule.
  • No bulk referencing needed.
  • Possibility to monitor two binders simultaneously.

New Improved B2 Series of Dye Labels

Posted on by

We are launching the new, optically superior B2 series of dye labels for Biacore™ instruments. The new B2 series dyes give a further doubling of the sensitivity as compared to our old B1 series.

Please check out our Products & Services page for more product information!

We have also published a new Application Note 018 describing highly sensitive kinetic analysis of small molecules on Biacore 2000 using the B2 series dyes. Please don’t hesitate to contact us at sales@episentec.com for a copy of the Application Note, or for a Product Data Sheet or a Price List of our product range!

 

New Biacore Application Note
