Abstract
Traditional antiviral vaccines are currently created by inactivating the virus chemically, most often using formaldehyde or β-propiolactone. These approaches are not optimal since they negatively affect the safety of the antigenic determinants of the inactivated particles and require additional purification stages. The most promising platforms for creating vaccines are based on pseudoviruses, i.e., viruses that have completely preserved the outer shell (capsid), while losing the ability to reproduce owing to the destruction of the genome. The irradiation of viruses with electron beam is the optimal way to create pseudoviral particles. In this review, with the example of the poliovirus, the main algorithms that can be applied to characterize pseudoviral particles functionally and structurally in the process of creating a vaccine preparation are presented. These algorithms are, namely, the analysis of the degree of genome destruction and coimmunogenicity. The structure of the poliovirus and methods of its inactivation are considered. Methods for assessing residual infectivity and immunogenicity are proposed for the functional characterization of pseudoviruses. Genome integrity analysis approaches, atomic force and electron microscopy, surface plasmon resonance, and bioelectrochemical methods are crucial to structural characterization of the pseudovirus particles.

Abstract
Charge detection mass spectrometry (CDMS) is a single-particle technique where the masses of individual ions are determined from simultaneous measurement of their mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) and charge. Masses are determined for thousands of individual ions, and then the results are binned to give a mass spectrum. Using this approach, accurate mass distributions can be measured for heterogeneous and high-molecular-weight samples that are usually not amenable to analysis by conventional mass spectrometry. Recent applications include heavily glycosylated proteins, protein complexes, protein aggregates such as amyloid fibers, infectious viruses, gene therapies, vaccines, and vesicles such as exosomes.

Abstract
Plant viruses are major contributors to crop losses and induce high economic costs worldwide. For reliable, on-site and early detection of plant viral diseases, portable biosensors are of great interest. In this study, a field-effect SiO2-gate electrolyte-insulator-semiconductor (EIS) sensor was utilized for the label-free electrostatic detection of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) particles as a model plant pathogen. The capacitive EIS sensor has been characterized regarding its TMV sensitivity by means of constant-capacitance method. The EIS sensor was able to detect biotinylated TMV particles from a solution with a TMV concentration as low as 0.025 nM. A good correlation between the registered EIS sensor signal and the density of adsorbed TMV particles assessed from scanning electron microscopy images of the SiO2-gate chip surface was observed. Additionally, the isoelectric point of the biotinylated TMV particles was determined via zeta potential measurements and the influence of ionic strength of the measurement solution on the TMV-modified EIS sensor signal has been studied.

Abstract
There are many techniques for monitoring and measuring the interactions between proteins and ligands. Most of these techniques are ensemble methods that can provide association constants and in some cases stoichiometry. Here we use charge detection mass spectrometry (CDMS), a single particle technique, to probe the interactions of antigen binding fragments (Fabs) from a series of antibodies with the canine parvovirus (CPV) capsid. In addition to providing the average number of bound Fabs as a function of Fab concentration (i.e., the binding curve), CDMS measurements provide information about the distribution of bound Fabs. We show that the distribution of bound ligands is much better at distinguishing between different binding models than the binding curve. The binding of Fab E to CPV is a textbook example. A maximum of 60 Fabs bind and the results are consistent with a model where all sites have the same binding affinity. However, for Fabs B, F, and 14, the distributions can only be fit by a model where there are distinct virus subpopulations with different binding affinities. This behavior can be distinguished from a situation where all CPV particles are identical, and each particle has the same distribution of sites with different binding affinities. The different responses to viral heterogeneity can be traced to the Fab binding sites. A comparison of Fab binding to new and aged CPV capsids reveals that a post-translational modification at the binding site for Fab E (M569) probably reduces the binding affinity.

Abstract
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR), widely used for the detection of plant viruses, are not easily performed, resulting in a demand for an innovative and more efficient diagnostic method. This paper summarizes the characteristics and research trends of biosensors focusing on the physicochemical properties of both interface elements and bioconjugates. In particular, the topological and photophysical properties of quantum dots (QDs) are discussed, along with QD-based biosensors and their practical applications. The QD-based Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) genosensor, most widely used in the biomolecule detection fields, and QD-based nanosensor for Rev-RRE interaction assay are presented as examples. In recent years, QD-based biosensors have emerged as a new class of sensor and are expected to open opportunities in plant virus detection, but as yet there have been very few practical applications (Table 3). In this article, the details of those cases and their significance for the future of plant virus detection will be discussed.

Abstract
Noroviruses (NoVs) commonly cause acute gastroenteritis outbreaks. Broadly reactive diagnostic assays are essential for rapid detection of NoV infections. We previously generated a panel of broadly reactive monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). We characterized MAb reactivities by use of virus-like particles (VLPs) from 16 different NoV genotypes (6 from genogroup I [GI], 9 from GII, and 1 from GIV) coating a microtiter plate (direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay [ELISA]) and by Western blotting. MAbs were genotype specific or recognized multiple genotypes within a genogroup and between genogroups. We next applied surface plasmon resonance (SPR) analysis to measure MAb dissociation constants (Kd) as a surrogate for binding affinity; a Kd level of <10 nM was regarded as indicating strong binding. Some MAbs did not interact with the VLPs by SPR analysis. To further assess this lack of MAb-VLP interaction, the MAbs were evaluated for the ability to identify NoV VLPs in a capture ELISA. Those MAbs for which a Kd could not be measured by SPR analysis also failed to capture the NoV VLPs; in contrast, those with a measurable Kd gave a positive signal in the capture ELISA. Thus, some broadly cross-reactive epitopes in the VP1 protruding domain may be partially masked on intact particles. One MAb, NV23, was able to detect genogroup I, II, and IV VLPs from 16 genotypes tested by sandwich ELISA, and it successfully detected NoVs in stool samples positive by real-time reverse transcription-PCR when the threshold cycle (CT) value was <31. Biochemical analyses of MAb reactivity, including SPR analysis, identified NV23 as a broadly reactive ligand for application in norovirus diagnostic assays.

Abstract
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based biosensors have been widely utilized for measuring interactions of a variety of molecules. Fewer examples include higher biological entities such as bacteria and viruses, and even fewer deal with plant viruses. Here, we describe the optimization of an SPR sensor chip for evaluation of the interaction of the economically relevant filamentous Potato virus Y (PVY) with monoclonal antibodies. Different virus isolates were efficiently and stably bound to a previously immobilized polyclonal antibody surface, which remained stable over subsequent injection regeneration steps. The ability of the biosensor to detect and quantify PVY particles was compared with ELISA and RT-qPCR. Stably captured virus surfaces were successfully used to explore kinetic parameters of the interaction of a panel of monoclonal antibodies with two PVY isolates representing the main viral serotypes N and O. In addition, the optimized biosensor proved to be suitable for evaluating whether two given monoclonal antibodies compete for the same epitope within the viral particle surface. The strategy proposed in this work can help to improve existing serologic diagnostic tools that target PVY and will allow investigation of the inherent serological variability of the virus and exploration for new interactions of PVY particles with other proteins.

Abstract
Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a large enveloped virus that encodes multiple glycoproteins required for virus-cell binding and fusion. To assess the binding properties of antibodies with target glycoprotein in a natural context of infection, we investigated the feasibility of using the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technique for studying the direct binding of antibodies with CMV virions. Direct immobilization of whole virions to sensor surface and a surface regeneration procedure allowed for quantitative and reproducible measurements of binding affinity and binding kinetics of antibody-whole virion interactions. The conformational and functional integrity of viral particles was not compromised by the regeneration condition as evaluated with antibodies recognizing conformational epitopes and by electron microscopy. Binding of an irrelevant antibody was not observed, indicating the high specificity of the method. A panel of anti-gB antibodies was measured and the binding affinities correlated fairly well with those determined by ELISA. These data demonstrated that the interaction of anti-gB antibody with whole virion of large enveloped CMV can be quantitatively studied using SPR. This method has been successfully applied for screening and selection of anti-CMV antibodies and can be potentially extended to study antibody-glycoprotein interactions of other related herpesviruses.

Abstract
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) allows for the investigation of the functional nature of binding interactions and provides detailed kinetic information across a wide range of molecular weights, including small molecules, all without the use of labels. Here the various Biacore instrument platforms and their primary uses, ranging from semi-automated systems designed for simple, flexible basic research to fully automated, high-throughput systems, and systems designed to function in regulated environments, are all highlighted. The available sensor chip surfaces and immobilization techniques are also discussed. Biacore SPR biosensors can be used for a wide variety of assays, including specificity, active concentration measurement, kinetics, and affinity and thermodynamic parameters. Biacore SPR biosensors, which measure real-time analysis of biospecific interactions without the use of labeled molecules, can be used for a wide variety of protein interaction assays. In this unit, examples and recommendations for studying protein interactions with a variety of molecules are provided. This unit also shows how the technology can be used to determine binding specificity, active concentration measurements, and the determination of kinetic and thermodynamic parameters.

Abstract
In this paper, the recent progress within biosensors for plant pathogen detection will be reviewed. Bio-recognition layers on sensors can be designed in various ways, however the most popular approach is to immobilise antibodies for specific capture of analytes. Focus will be put on antibody surface-immobilisation strategies as well as the use of antibodies in the widely used sensors, quartz crystal microbalance, surface plasmon resonance and cantilevers. We will describe the available data on antibody-based plant pathogen detection and furthermore use examples from detection of the pathogens Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, Streptococcus mutans, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus anthracis, Campylobacter and Escherichia coli. We will touch upon optimal assay design and further discuss the strengths and limitations of current sensor technologies for detection of viruses, bacteria and fungi.

Abstract
A protein chip based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) was developed for measuring the Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae antibody titres using a recombinant 30-kDa fragment of P97 adhesin as an antigen. The diagnostic potential of this SPR assay, for detecting the antibody titres to the M. hyopneumoniae 30-kDa protein, was compared with that of conventional ELISA using 70 pig serum samples taken from six pig farms. The SPR assay was found to be highly specific and sensitive. Moreover, there was a strong positive correlation between the SPR and ELISA titres (n = 70, r = 0.898, P < 0.01). Therefore, this recombinant 30-kDa protein can be used as an antigen for serological studies, and the SPR, which is a label-free method, is expected to be a valuable and reproducible tool in the serodiagnosis of M. hyopneumoniae infection.

A protein chip based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) was developed to measure the antibody (Ab) titers of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) using the recombinant gp55 protein as an antigen. The diagnostic potential of this SPR assay for detecting the Ab titers to CSFV gp55 was compared that of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using 170 serum samples from 14 pig farms. The SPR assay was highly specific and sensitive, and there were no cross-reactions detected. There was a strong positive correlation between the SPR and ELISA titers (n=170, r=0.869, p<0.01). Therefore, the SPR label-free method is a valuable tool in the serodiagnosis of CSFV infection and determining Ab titers after vaccination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since 1990, a new biosensor technology based on surface plasmon resonance makes it possible to visualize molecular recognition as a function of time, in terms of change in mass concentration occurring on a sensor chip surface. One of the reactants is immobilized on a dextran matrix while the other is introduced in a flow passing over the surface. The binding is followed in real time by the increase in refractive index caused by the mass of bound species. OBJECTIVES In the present review, the applications of this new technology for developing probes intended for viral diagnosis will be described. STUDY DESIGN In contrast with other immunoassay systems, the biosensor technique preserves the conformational integrity of the reactants since no labelling is required. It also makes it possible to follow every step of a multiple-layer assay and allows interaction measurements in real time. Suitable antigen and antibody probes can be selected on the basis of the conditions of the diagnostic assay that is being developed, especially in terms of affinity and specificity. RESULTS Our results suggest that when the cyclic peptide 209-222 of the E1 protein of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is immobilized on the sensor chip via a biotin moiety, it retains a constrained conformation which is better recognized by HCV antibodies than the linear form. Data are presented which indicate that the biosensor technique facilitates the screening and selection of anti HIV-1 antibodies that are likely to possess the most potent neutralizing potential. CONCLUSION Since there is a good correlation between BIAcore and ELISA data, it seems likely that the biosensor technology will be increasingly used for developing reagents intended for viral diagnosis.

Abstract
All IgGs are homobivalent, but their ability to bind bivalently to the surface of a virus particle depends mainly on a favourable spacing of cognate epitopes and the angle that the FAb arm makes with the virus surface. If the angle of binding forces the second FAb arm to point into solution, monovalent binding is inevitable. This IgG will have the same affinity as its FAb, will be less stably bound than if it were bound bivalently, cannot cross-link epitopes on the surface of a virion, and cannot neutralise by cross-linking surface proteins. However, at moderate IgG concentrations, monovalently bound IgG can reduce infectivity by aggregating virions, a phenomenon that cannot occur with IgG bound bivalently. This review describes how surface plasmon resonance can be used to determine the valency of IgG binding to enveloped and non-enveloped virus particles, and discusses the implications of this new methodology.

Abstract
Kinetics of polymer surfactant interactions and the effect of surfactant binding on the conformational dynamics of the polymer were explored in this work using surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy. Polyacrylic acid was modified with thiol to varying degrees so as to force the polymer to form different loop sizes upon adsorption on the gold SPR sensor surface. Dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride in solution was flowed over the polymer-coated sensor surface and the binding was followed in real time. It was found that control of the loop size of the polymer on the solid surface enabled in turn the control of surfactant binding, with the largest loop allowing the maximum amount of surfactant to bind and vice versa. The kinetic plot of the binding showed three distinct segments. The first segment followed convective-diffusive kinetics. The second and third segments followed first-order kinetics with the second rate being significantly faster than the first one. Careful analysis of the second segment showed that it is possible to divide it into two different segments, each following a first-order kinetics, with the second rate being slightly slower than the first one suggesting a gradual slow down of the reaction due to convolution from the polymer conformational changes. Mechanistically, the sudden increase in the rate for the third segment of surfactant binding implies that the polymer matrix is opening up so as to incorporate more surfactant molecules. This was attributed to the formation of charged double surfactant species the repulsive interaction of which prevented the polymer network from imploding. Studies using unmodified polymers suggested the possibility of sudden conformational rearrangement in the polymer network, with progress in surfactant binding. Furthermore, the reflectance of the SPR spectrum was found to increase upon surfactant binding, implying that there is a decreased efficiency of coupling of the incident radiation into the surface plasmon mode of the metal, which suggests that the surfactant actually penetrated the polymer matrix.

Abstract
A biosensor-based assay, using a surface plasmon resonance detection system, was developed to detect and isotype anti-adenoviral antibodies in patients dosed with an adenoviral-based gene therapy vector. In the assay, whole, intact virus was immobilized onto the sensor chip surface. Electron microscopy and monoclonal antibody studies provide evidence that the virus remains intact after immobilization. The patients tested had preexisting serum levels of anti-adenoviral antibodies. A classic anamnestic response was observed in patients dosed with the gene-therapy agent. Isotyping experiments indicated that IgG antibodies predominated in serum even at the predose time point. Analysis of ascites fluid samples from some patients indicated detectable levels of IgA in addition to IgG. Results obtained using the biosensor-based assay corresponded to an existing enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The assay was easy to perform and the automated instrument reduced the required "hands on" time. In addition to studying the development of anti-adenoviral antibodies, the techniques described may be applied to virus:receptor interaction studies or antiviral drug:virus interaction studies.

Abstract
A receptor binding assay based on the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor technique was developed to study the interaction between insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) and its intracellular substrate protein insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1). The sensor surface was modified with anti-IGF-1R (alpha-subunit) monoclonal antibodies for the capturing of the receptor-containing membrane fragments from cell lysates. The IGF-1R was successfully immobilized on the sensor surface with binding capability for its intracellular substrates. SPR measurements showed that the tyrosine phosphorylation of IGF-1R induced by its extracellular ligand insulin-like growth factor-1 caused the receptor to bind with IRS-1 10 times faster than the unactivated receptor. As a result, the affinity constants of IRS-1 to phosphorylated and unphosphorylated IGF-1R were (8.06+/-5.18)x10(9) M(-1) and (9.81+/-4.61)x10(8) M(-1), respectively.

Abstract
alpha-Agglutinin and a-agglutinin are complementary cell adhesion glycoproteins active during mating in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. They bind with high affinity and high specificity: cells of opposite mating types are irreversibly bound by a few pairs of agglutinins. Equilibrium and surface plasmon resonance kinetic analyses showed that the purified binding region of alpha-agglutinin interacted similarly with purified a-agglutinin and with a-agglutinin expressed on cell surfaces. At 20 degrees C, the K(D) for the interaction was 2 x 10(-9) to 5 x 10(-9) M. This high affinity was a result of a very low dissociation rate ( approximately 2.6 x 10(-4) s(-1)) coupled with a low association rate (= 5 x 10(4) M(-1) s(-1)). Circular-dichroism spectroscopy showed that binding of the proteins was accompanied by measurable changes in secondary structure. Furthermore, when binding was assessed at 10 degrees C, the association kinetics were sigmoidal, with a very low initial rate. An induced-fit model of binding with substantial apposition of hydrophobic surfaces on the two ligands can explain the observed affinity, kinetics, and specificity and the conformational effects of the binding reaction.

Abstract
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is an optical technique that is widely gaining recognition as a valuable tool to investigate biological interactions. SPR offers real time in situ analysis of dynamic surface events and, thus, is capable of defining rates of adsorption and desorption for a range of surface interactions. In this review we highlight the diversity of SPR analysis. Examples of a wide range of applications of SPR are presented, concentrating on work relevant to the analysis of biomaterials. Particular emphasis is given to the use of SPR as a complimentary tool, showing the broad range of techniques that are routinely used alongside SPR analysis.

Abstract
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) has been successfully incorporated into an immunosensor format for the simple, rapid, and nonlabeled assay of various biochemical analytes. Proteins, complex conjugates, toxins, allergens, drugs, and pesticides can be determined directly using either natural antibodies or synthetic receptors with high sensitivity and selectivity as the sensing element. Immunosensors are capable of real-time monitoring of the antigen-antibody reaction. A wide range of molecules can be detected with lower limits ranging between 10(-9) and 10(-13) mol/L. Several successful commercial developments of SPR immunosensors are available and their web pages are rich in technical information. This review highlights many recent developments in SPR-based immunoassay, functionalizations of the gold surface, novel receptors in molecular recognition, and advanced techniques for sensitivity enhancement. Furthermore, it describes the challenge of current problems and provides some insights toward the future technologies.

Abstract
Recent crystal structure analysis of HIV-1 gp41 revealed that two domains (N- and C-domains) on gp41 play an important role in mediating membrane fusion and HIV-1 entry. The experimental evidence that gp41 by N-domain bound the potential receptor protein P45 could help to understand the mechanism of HIV entry. A recombinant soluble gp41 (rsgp41: Env aa539-684) could bind to P45 in the affinity capillary electrophoresis analysis and the surface plasmon resonance assay. In a blockade assay, peptide P1 (Env aa583-599) could inhibit interaction between rsgp41 and P45, while a control peptide could not. Direct binding of rsgp41, rgp41DP (aa567-648), P1 peptide and (P1)(2) peptide [(aa586-596)(2)] to P45 was examined in an ELISA assay. Rsgp41 bound the potential receptor protein P45 strongly, while rgp41DP and P1 as well as (P1)(2) could all weakly bind to P45, indicating that gp41 by N-domain weakly binds P45 and the region RILAVERYLKD located in the N-domain is defined as the binding site for P45 binding.

Abstract
Based on the findings that two cellular proteins of 45 kDa (P45) and 62 kDa (P62) serve as the putative receptor molecules for binding of HIV-1 transmembrane protein gp41 to human T, B lymphocytes and monocytes, we examined whether HIV-2 gp36 and HIV-1 gp41 share the putative receptor proteins P45 and P62. In SPR-assay (SPR: surface plasmon resonance), the recombinant soluble gp36 (rsgp36: Env aa518-678 from clone ROD) like the recombinant soluble gp41 (rsgp41: Env aa539-684 from clone BH10) was binding to P45 and P62. By affinity capillary electrophoresis (ACE)-analysis, formation of stable rsgp36-P45 and rsgp36-P62 complexes were confirmed, and the interactions of rsgp36 with P45 and P62 is quite strong with a fast association rate and a slow dissociation rate. These results indicate that HIV-2 gp36 and HIV-1 gp41 have the common putative cellular receptor proteins P45 and P62, and the binding of gp36 to human lymphocytes and monocytes could be based on the interaction between gp36 and P45 and P62.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To characterize the binding of gp41 with the putative receptor protein P62. DESIGN HIV-1 gp41 binds several cellular proteins by two binding sites, one of which has been shown to bind to a putative receptor protein P45 (45 kDa). Based on this, an attempt was made to determine the relationship between the two binding sites and P62 (62 kDa). METHODS Using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) measurement, the interaction was measured between recombinant soluble gp41 (rsgp41, Env aa539-684) and protein P62. Inhibition of this interaction was attempted by the use of synthetic peptides (P1, aa583-599; P2, aa646-674) corresponding to the two binding sites in gp41. In addition, the direct binding of P62 to peptide P2 was examined in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Using SPR measurement, the interaction between P62 and rsgp41 was confirmed, and the interaction was found to be inhibited by only the synthetic peptide P2 sequence that corresponds to the C domain of gp41; neither P1 nor a control peptide inhibited the interaction. Moreover, like rsgp41, P2 was able to bind P62 whereas P1 and another recombinant gp41 (aa567-648 that does not include the C domain) were not. CONCLUSIONS P62 bound rsgp41 and the synthetic peptide P2. This interaction could be inhibited only by P2. These results indicate that the C domain of HIV-1 gp41 binds P62.

Abstract
Cyclic heptapeptide microcystins are a group of hepatoxicants which exert the cytotoxic effects by inhibiting the catalytic activities of phosphatase-2A (PP-2A) and phosphatase-1 (PP-1) and thus disrupt the normal signal transduction pathways. Microcystins interact with PP-2A and PP-1 by a two-step mechanism involving rapid binding and inactivation of protein phosphatase catalytic subunit, followed by a slower covalent interaction. It was proposed that inactivation of PP-2A/PP-1 catalytic activity by microcystins precedes covalent adduct formation. In this study, we used a biosensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to examine the effects of three microcystins, MCLR, MCRR and MCYR, on the binding between PP-2A and its substrate, phosphorylase-a (PL-a), during the first step of the interaction. The SPR biosensor provides real-time information on the association and dissociation kinetics of PL-a with immobilized PP-2A in the absence and presence of microcystins. It was found that the affinity of PL-a to microcystin-bound PP-2A was four times smaller compared to unbound PP-2A, due to 50% decreases in the association rates and two-fold increases in dissociation rates of PL-a binding to PP-2A. The results suggest that the rapid binding of microcystins to the PP-2A catalytic site leads to the formation of a noncovalent microcystin/PP-2A adduct. While the adduct formation fully inhibits the catalytic activity of PP-2A, it only results in partial inhibition of the substrate binding. The similar effects of the three microcystins on PP-2A suggest that the toxins bind to PP-2A at the same site and cause similar conformational changes. The present work also demonstrates the potential application of biosensor technology in environmental toxicological research.

Abstract
The capsid protein of rubella virus was produced in baculovirus-infected Spodoptera frugiperda insect cells, with a polyhistidine affinity tag at the carboxy terminus. The RV capsid recombinant protein was produced in a 10-liter bioreactor and purified, under nondenaturing conditions, using immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography. Immunoblot analyses indicated that the purified recombinant protein was intact and migrated with the expected molecular weight. The final yield was 5 mg of purified protein per liter of cell culture. Surface plasmon resonance was used to investigate the antigenic potential of the histidine tagged capsid protein in an antigen-antibody interaction study. A specific interaction between the two proteins was shown. Our results suggest that this strategy should be useful in interaction studies of other virus-specific proteins and antibodies.

Abstract
Optical biosensors are finding increasing use in the determination of kinetic and equilibrium constants for a variety of biomolecular interactions. Usually these biosensors require one biomolecule, the ligand, to be covalently attached to a hydrogel matrix which itself is bonded to the sensing surface. The ligands partner, the ligate, then binds from solution resulting in a measurable change in response which the instrument records as a function of time. Although in many cases, optical biosensors are used in order to obtain parameters that relate to interactions in solution, it is becoming clear that measurements involving the interaction of ligate with immobilized ligands on surfaces require careful experimental design. Here we report on how the density of ligand loading within the hydogel matrix affects the measured interaction kinetics. It is found that crowding of ligand within this matrix results in a significant reduction in the measured association rate constant, with a corresponding effect in the calculated overall affinity. However, measurements at low ligand loadings show association rate constants that are comparable to those measured in solution. Clearly, where this comparison is required, it is important to perform measurements under such conditions.

Abstract
The introduction in 1990 of a new biosensor technology based on surface plasmon resonance has greatly simplified the measurement of binding interactions in biology. This new technology known as biomolecular interaction analysis makes it possible to visualize the binding process as a function of time by following the increase in refractive index that occurs when one of the interacting partners binds to its ligand immobilized on the surface of a sensor chip. None of the reactants needs to be labelled, which avoids the artefactual changes in binding properties that often result when the molecules are labelled. Biosensor instruments are well-suited for the rapid mapping of viral epitopes and for identifying which combinations of capturing and detector Mabs will give the best results in sandwich assays. Biosensor binding data are also useful for selecting peptides to be used in diagnostic solid-phase immunoassays. Very small changes in binding affinity can be measured with considerable precision which is a prerequisite for analyzing the functional effect and thermodynamic implications of limited structural changes in interacting molecules. On-rate (ka) and off-rate (kd) kinetic constants of the interaction between virus and antibody can be readily measured and the equilibrium affinity constant K can be calculated from the ratio ka/kd = K.

Abstract
The affinity of a panel of neutralizing monoclonal IgGs and their Fab fragments has been measured for the first time with an enveloped type A influenza virus, by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and the BIAlite instrument. Equilibrium constants could be calculated for four of the five mAbs tested. These were in the nanomolar range. The ranking order was very similar to that obtained with an affinity ELISA, (an equilibrium system) but as others have found, affinities were 2-10-fold lower as measured by SPR (a flow system). No data were obtained with mAb HC58 although it had one of the highest affinities using an ELISA format, and was 28-fold higher than another mAb (HC10) which gave good data by SPR. This may relate to the orientation of its binding on the virion surface. The Kdissoc. of the Fabs was only 3-10-fold higher compared to their IgGs. Fab from the lowest affinity IgG (HC10) could not be measured, possibly because it fell below the threshold for detection.

Abstract
We describe a stable chelating linkage for the reversible immobilization of oligohistidine tagged proteins in the flow cell of the 'BIAcore' surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor. The carboxymethylated dextran surface of the flow cell was covalently derivatized with N-(5-amino-1-carboxypentyl)iminodiacetic acid (NTA ligand) via its single primary amino group, and the derivatized surface charged with Ni2+. 6His-VP55, an N-terminally tagged derivative of the catalytic subunit of the heterodimeric vaccinia virus poly(A) polymerase, was immobilized to this surface in a manner that was dependent upon the immobilized NTA ligand, the prior injection of Ni2+ at a concentration of > 10(-5) M and the 6His tag, and which was reversible upon injection of EDTA. The stability of immobilization varied inversely with the amount of 6His-VP55 immobilized and was greatest in buffer of pH 8.0 or greater, containing NaCl at a concentration of 0.1 M. Utilizing these conditions, 6His-VP55 remained stably immobilized during 60 min of buffer flow at moderate flow rates. VP39, the stimulatory subunit of vaccinia poly(A) polymerase, interacted with the immobilized 6His-VP55. Approximately 99% of immobilized 6His-VP55 molecules were available for VP39 binding, in contrast to the approximately 40% availability for 6His-VP55 molecules immobilized covalently, via primary amino groups. Three additional proteins, tagged at either the N- or C-terminus with oligohistidine, were shown to be stably immobilized via the chelating linkage. This simple method permits immobilization of proteins in the BIAcore biosensor via a commonly employed affinity tag, in a stable and reversible manner, and requires only a single biosensor flow cell for the iterative generation of immobilized protein surfaces.

Abstract
Interactions between immobilized capture monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), analyte molecules and colloidal gold conjugated second monoclonal antibodies have been investigated in the BIAcore biosensor and in the Nycocard immunoassay format. This report focuses on six monoclonal antibodies against human heart myoglobin, although, results with other antigens are also discussed. The BIAcore was used to screen monoclonal antibodies as antigen capture reagents, and for their function as colloidal gold conjugated second antibodies in the Nycocard. Some antibodies with low affinity caused by a rapid antigen dissociation rate, showed high affinity kinetics when used unlabelled or as gold conjugated detector reagents. One gold conjugated mAb with excellent properties in the Nycocard, showed double binding to one epitope, when tested in the BIAcore. The real time visualization of association and dissociation rates was a unique tool in the elucidation of antigen-antibody interactions. Our study confirmed that good antibody candidates selected with the BIAcore must always be tested in their actual conjugation situation before final optimization.

Abstract
Optical biosensors, based on evanescent wave technology, are analytical devices that measure the interactions between biomolecules in real time, without the need for any labels. Specific ligands are immobilized to a sensor surface, and a solution of receptor or antibody is injected over the top. Binding is measured by recording changes in the refractive index, caused by the molecules interacting near the sensor surface within the evanescent field. Evanescent wave-based biosensors are being used to study an increasing number of applications in the life sciences, including the binding and dissociation kinetics of antibodies and receptor-ligand pairs, protein-DNA and DNA-DNA interactions, epitope mapping, phage display libraries, and whole cell- and virus-protein interactions. There are currently four commercially available evanescent wave biosensors on the market. This article describes the technology behind their sensing techniques, as well as the range of applications in which they are employed.

Abstract
We studied two monoclonal antibodies (MAbs 9-11 and 41-1) which are specific for dominant and conserved epitopes located on HIV-1 transmembrane Gp41. These MAbs recognize both Gp41 and a synthetic HIV-1 envelope peptide (39GC) which is a fragment of Gp41. The interactions between MAbs 9-11 and 41-1 and 39GC either coupled to a sensor chip or to alkaline phosphatase were investigated using BIAcore technology. The association and dissociation rate constants as well as the affinity constants were determined. BIAcore technology allows real-time determination of the interaction between two molecules without the need for any labeling, neither isotopic nor enzymatic. The peptide 39GC was immobilized by coupling to dextran on the BIAcore biosensor through a disulfide bond with a cysteine residue added to the N-terminus of the synthetic peptide. The two native cysteine residues located in the loop of Gp41 were protected by ethylcarbamoyl residues (CONHC2H5); this chemical modification prevented the formation of the S-S bridge and in particular the internal loop. We specifically studied the interaction between the MAbs and either the protected peptide or the peptide whose cysteine residues had been deprotected in situ by alkaline treatment. The results showed that MAb 41-1 recognized 39GC either protected (Ka = 7.6 x 10(6) M-1) or unprotected (Ka = 1.48 x 10(8) M-1), whereas MAb 9-11 recognized only the unprotected form (Ka = 2.18 x 10(8) M-1). Our results suggest that the epitope MAb 9-11 is directed against a part of the peptide sequence which includes the two native cysteines. The difference in affinity observed for MAb 41-1 between the protected and the unprotected forms of 39GC was found to be due to a lower rate of dissociation for unprotected 39GC; these results illustrate the importance of peptide conformation on antibody recognition and might be explained by a conformational change due to reconstitution of the internal loop following deprotection of the thiol groups. MAbs 9-11 and 41-1 also recognized 39GC conjugated to alkaline phosphatase and deprotected. We observed a difference between the rate constants for MAb 41-1 binding to free peptide and its binding to the peptide-enzyme conjugate which might be due to changes in peptide flexibility. In contrast, the rate constants of MAb 9-11 were the same in both experiments, suggesting that the rigidity of the internal loop prevents changes in 9-11 epitope conformation.

Abstract
The recent development of an automated surface plasmon resonance technology for the measurement of biomolecular interactions (Pharmacia BIAcore) has provided new opportunities for the detection and analysis of protein-protein interactions. In the BIAcore, detection is based on changes in surface plasmon resonance which are monitored optically. Changes in surface plasmon resonance correspond to changes in surface concentration of macromolecules and can be monitored in real time. We have found that the detection sensitivity obtainable with this technology (ng/ml concentrations of specific ligands are readily detectable for many applications) is complementary "in a bidirectional manner" to micropreparative HPLC. Thus micropreparative HPLC may be used to purify and characterise reagents for the biosensor, whilst the biosensor may be used to define chromatographic parameters such as elution conditions for affinity chromatography or serve as an affinity detector for fractions obtained during chromatographic purification. Examples of such applications, including the potential of the biosensor to search for and monitor the purification of unknown ligands for which the target molecule has been identified, are shown. In particular, the use of the biosensor to monitor the purification of soluble epidermal growth factor receptor from A431 cell conditioned media is demonstrated.

Abstract
A method for the detection of RNA viral and subviral plant pathogens was developed that combines pathogen partial purification by solid-phase adsorbed antibodies, reverse transcriptional-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and quantitation of the amplified products by fluorescence. The reverse transcription of the RNA is performed directly on the retained material without any previous thermal or chemical disruption of the virus particles. The whole procedure can be carried out in a microtiter plate. Its validity has been successfully confirmed for the detection of bean yellow mosaic virus, cherry leafroll virus, cucumber mosaic virus, citrus tristeza virus, grapevine fanleaf virus, potato leafroll virus, pepper mild mottle virus, and tomato spotted wilt virus, as well as the satellite RNA of cucumber mosaic virus and potato spindle tuber viroid. In this procedure virus-specific antibodies can be replaced by monoclonal antibodies against double-stranded RNA, thus offering the possibility of detection when no specific virus antibodies are available, or immunological methods are difficult to use (i.e., subviral pathogens like satellite-RNAs or viroids). The method described has the typical sensitivity of assays based on the polymerase chain reaction, it is not more laborious than ELISA, and an equivalent degree of automation is possible.

Abstract
The interaction between human heart myoglobin and ten specific monoclonal antibodies was investigated with a new biosensor technology, real time biospecific interaction analysis (RT BIA), using surface plasmon resonance. Analysis of association and dissociation kinetics was monitored in real time, with unlabelled reactants. Antibody isotyping was rapid and simple. Epitope mapping with RT BIA confirmed, with substantial time saving, the sum of results obtained in conventional labelled systems. Monoclonal antibodies with four different epitope specificities and optimal binding function were selected for a myoglobin sandwich assay with enhanced sensitivity. BIAcore can be used directly as a diagnostic tool, or as an analytical tool in immunoassay development.

Abstract
Fundamental information that enhances our understanding of biospecific interactions can be obtained using a new analytical system based on biosensor technology. The functional characteristics of biospecific interaction, such as kinetics, affinity and binding position, are examined by label-free analysis of proteins in free solution binding to an immobilized ligand at a hydrophilic sensor surface.

Abstract
Nine immunoglobulin G and nine immunoglobulin M murine monoclonal antibody-producing hybridomas reactive with live Salmonella bacteria were obtained from several fusions of immune spleen cells and Sp2/0 myeloma cells. The antibodies were selected by the magnetic immunoluminescence assay. The monoclonal antibodies were reactive with serogroups A, B, C1, C2, D, E, and K and Salmonella choleraesuis subsp. diarizonae. Each monoclonal antibody proved to be reactive with a distinct serotype. Clinical isolates belonging to these Salmonella serogroups could be detected. Reactivity with non-Salmonella bacteria proved to be minor.

Abstract
The development of new diagnostic techniques in immunology and molecular biology during the last two decades has opened up new possibilities for rapid viral diagnosis. Solid phase immunoassays for antigen and antibody detection are now widely used in diagnostic settings. Several novel techniques have been introduced and have led to commercially available tests. Diagnostic methods using nucleic acid amplification procedures are already applied in research laboratories and will be commercialized soon. Biosensor-based diagnostic techniques have the potential of generating a result nearly instantaneously and it has become possible to monitor kinetic processes. Automatization and simplified procedures are needed to allow diagnostic tests to be performed soon after the sample has been obtained from the patient. In order to evaluate the new procedures and avoid false results, rigorous quality control in diagnostic virology will have to be instituted.

Abstract
An automated biosensor system (BIAcore) designed for measuring molecular interactions in real time and without labelling any of the reactants was used for mapping the epitopes of tobacco mosaic virus protein using conformationally specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). Some of the MAbs used as capturing antibody on the sensor chip allowed a conformational change to occur in the viral protein. As a result, MAbs specific for the quaternary structure of polymerized viral protein were able to bind to monomeric viral subunits. Compared with classical solid-phase enzyme immunoassay, the biosensor technology possesses several advantages for epitope mapping of viral proteins.
