Evaluation of Novel Quartz Crystal Microbalance Based Technologies to Quantify Interactions of Biological Macromolecules with Cell-Bound Markers

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.
