Overview Service Process Examples and Solutions Frequently Asked Questions

Overview

High-throughput binding assays are designed to measure the interactions between molecules quickly and efficiently. Using state-of-the-art technologies and automated platforms, these assays can screen thousands of interactions in a short time, providing critical insights into binding affinities, kinetics, and specificities. Our services leverage these advanced techniques to deliver high-quality binding data tailored to your research needs.

The experimental method process usually includes the following steps:

Protein preparation: Firstly, it is necessary to extract and purify the target protein from the experimental tissue or cells to ensure the purity and activity of the protein.
Compound screening: A large number of compound libraries will be used to screen for potential compounds that bind to the target protein. These compounds are usually preliminarily screened through computer screening before experimental validation.
Combination experiment: The selected compound will undergo a combination experiment with the target protein. Usually, a high-throughput technology is used, such as biosensor technology, fluorescence labeling technology, etc.
Data analysis: By analyzing the results of the binding experiment, it is possible to determine which compounds have good binding properties. Further validation and optimization can help identify the most promising compounds for subsequent research and development.

Through High throughput Binding Assays, researchers can more quickly screen compounds with potential biological activity, thereby accelerating the research and development process of drugs and bioactive compounds.

Service Process

The process of high-throughput binding assays involves several critical and interrelated steps:

Project Consultation: Collaborating with researchers to define specific binding assay requirements, including the target molecules, desired throughput, and detection method.
Assay Design and Development: Designing and optimizing binding assays to accurately measure interactions. This includes selecting appropriate labels, buffers, and detection techniques.
Sample Preparation: Preparing high-quality samples, including proteins, peptides, small molecules, or nucleic acids, for the binding assays.
High-throughput Screening: Using automated platforms to perform binding assays on a large scale. Techniques may include fluorescence polarization (FP), surface plasmon resonance (SPR), bio-layer interferometry (BLI), and other high-throughput methods.
Data Collection and Analysis: Collecting and analyzing binding data to determine affinities, kinetics, and specificities. Advanced software tools are used for data interpretation and visualization.
Validation and Replication: Confirming the binding interactions through replicate experiments and additional validation assays to ensure accuracy and reproducibility.
Reporting and Consultation: Providing a detailed report of the findings and offering further consultation to interpret the results and plan subsequent research steps.
