Excerpt From SKILL.md

SPR (Surface Plasmon Resonance)

  • Mechanism: Detects refractive index changes at gold surface
  • Surface: Gold chip with dextran matrix (CM5, CM7, etc.)
  • Flow: Continuous microfluidics
  • Best for: Small molecules, high-affinity, precise kon/koff

BLI (Biolayer Interferometry)

  • Mechanism: Measures optical interference pattern shift
  • Surface: Fiber optic biosensor tips (SA, Ni-NTA, AHC)
  • Flow: Dip-and-read (no microfluidics)
  • Best for: High-throughput, crude samples, antibody screening

Why SPR works but BLI doesn't

CauseMechanismSolution
Small analyteBLI less sensitive for <10 kDaUse SPR with appropriate chip
Weak affinity (KD >10μM)Fast dissociation in BLI dipIncrease analyte concentration
Low expressionNot enough signalIncrease biosensor loading

Use cases

  • Use when: (1) Planning binding kinetics experiments, (2) Troubleshooting poor/no binding signal, (3) Interpreting kinetic data artifacts, (4) Choosing between SPR vs BLI platforms.

Not for

  • Do not rely on this catalog entry alone for installation or maintenance details.
