Cellulose model surfaces for studying protein interactions using MP-SPR
Application Note #126

Adsorbed mass of BSA (left) and hIgG (rigth) on cellulose, chitosan-modified cellulose, and CMC-modified cellulose. The adsorbed amount were calculated from the SPR data.
New type of point of care devices and other consumer analysis devices need new cost effective and preferably renewable new materials in order to be economically and environmentally feasible. Multi-Parametric Surface Plasmon Resonance can be used to study new material coatings, such as modified cellulose model surfaces, for studying interactions of new materials and analysts.
