28. s This patented One shot Kinetics approach allows up to 36 individual interactions to be performed simultaneously in a single analyte injection providing high efficiency in experiment optimization and high throughput in data production Ligands and analytes are typically injected in the vertical and horizontal directions respectively For kinetic analysis analyte injections are usually performed at a high flow rate for example 100 ul min but a lower flow rate may be used to reduce sample consumption The injection conditions including association and dissociation time flow rate and analyte concentrations should be optimized to obtain high quality interaction analysis Refer to bulletin 6044 for further details on achieving optimal ligand analyte interaction analysis Three useful tips for obtaining reliable interaction analysis results are listed below 1 Prepare the analyte samples as a concentration series typically a two or threefold dilution series centered around the expected Kp 2 If needed set up a double reference Replace one of the six analyte channels with running buffer for use as a real time double reference row reference Alternatively set up an injection of running buffer into all six analyte channels prior to the injection of analyte samples injection reference Double referencing is needed for baseline drift correction and is used mostly when the ligand is reversibly captured by a capture reagent such as an a
