2011-07-11 08:59 Attana AB Lund University: Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) were prepared in situ on Attana's quartz crystal sensor surface with good reproducibility and long-term stability. The resulting MIP surfaces can be used for detection and discrimination between very similar molecules, and the analysis is fast enough to allow for large amounts of samples.

2011-06-22 08:44 Attana AB University of California, San Fransisco (UCSF): A method has been optimized to extract Botulinum toxin A from the inclusion body, refold it into active form and purify it using ion exchange chromatography. A rapid immunoassay was also developed to facilitate monitoring of active Botulinum toxin A during purification, using Attana's quartz crystal microbalance sensor technology.

2011-06-20 08:28 Attana AB Two experiments with two distinct purposes were performed on the Attana Cell 200. The first experiment intended to find a diagnostic tool to test tumors after surgery to see if they are metastatic. The second experiment tested a herceptin conjugate designed for targeted immunotherapy. Both results showed that the Attana Cell 200 may help lowering clinical stage failure rates.

2011-06-15 08:25 Attana AB Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT): A biocompatible and injectable designer self-assembling peptide hydrogel system has been developed. It may be a useful carrier for the presentation of functional proteins and therapeutic antibodies for sustained release applications.

2011-06-13 08:43 Attana AB Polypure: By using functionalized PEG derivatives, gold particles can be modified or conjugated to biomolecules to increase the stability. Avidin has been used as a tetrameric multivalent "glue" to demonstrate cluster formation between biotinylated AuNPEGs (Polyethylene glycol coated gold nanoparticles).

2011-06-08 08:31 Attana AB Swiss Institute of Allergy and Asthma Research (SIAF): Currently we are using QCM to replace classical surface plasmon resonance experiments to quantify molecular interactions. We aim to establish this novel technology of measuring the interaction of biomolecules with molecules on entire cells, and to elucidate the binding properties of these interactions on defined systems.

2011-04-18 09:52 Attana AB The data obtained from QCM analyses are firstly qualitative, delivering information about specificity and selectivity, and quantitative, delivering exact thermodynamic and kinetic parameters of interactions. See the difference in this poster!
