Figure 1
Schematic representation of the BSI apparatus. Pre-equilibrated solutions of antibodies and ligands in buffer are pipetted into the channels of the microfluidic chip. Channels are interrogated with a 633 nm HeNe laser, and the resulting interference fringes are captured using a CCD camera.

Analyte (top row) and negative control (bottom row) compounds used for BSI testing. (A) – (E) refer to the data shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3
Figure 3
Representative plots of BSI signal vs. ligand concentration for the determination of binding constants for the following pairs of molecules (antibody + small molecule). (squares = “ligand”; diamonds = “control” compound) (A) ligand = dopamine, control = 3-methoxytyramine; (B) ligand = nitrotyrosine, control = tyrosine (C) ligand = trinitrophenol, control = phenol; (D) ligand = serotonin, control = l-tryptophan; (E) ligand = histamine, control = l-histidine; (F) ligand = holo transferrin, control = fully denatured holo transferrin. Each data point represents the average of at least four independent measurements; error bars are plus and minus the full value of standard error in each direction. Repeat determinations of the binding curves gave very similar Kads values.

BSI analysis for TNP in spiked soil samples: positive control = buffer solution of TNP, S1 = garden soil, S2 = beach sand. Each value is the average of three measurements with error bars representing standard deviation.
