ADIBO-based "click" chemistry for diagnostic peptide micro-array fabrication: physicochemical and assay characteristics. Molecules 2013; 18:9833-49.

Abstract
Several azide-derivatized and fluorescently-labeled peptides were immobilized on azadibenzocyclooctyne (ADIBO)-activated slide surfaces via a strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) reaction revealing excellent immobilization kinetics, good spot homogeneities and reproducible fluorescence signal intensities. A myc-peptide micro-array immunoassay showed an antibody limit-of-detection (LOD) superior to a microtiter plate-based ELISA. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) and dextran covalently attached via “click” chemistry more efficiently reduced non-specific binding (NSB) of fluorescently-labeled IgG to the microarray surface in comparison to immobilized hexanoic acid and various types of polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivatives. Confirmation of these findings via further studies with other proteins and serum components could open up new possibilities for human sample and microarray platform-based molecular diagnostic tests.

Abstract
In the postgenomic era, information is king and information-rich technologies are critically important drivers in both fundamental biology and medicine. It is now known that single-parameter measurements provide only limited detail and that quantitation of multiple biomolecular signatures can more fully illuminate complex biological function. Label-free technologies have recently attracted significant interest for sensitive and quantitative multiparameter analysis of biological systems. There are several different classes of label-free sensors that are currently being developed both in academia and in industry. In this critical review, we highlight, compare, and contrast some of the more promising approaches. We describe the fundamental principles of these different methods and discuss advantages and disadvantages that might potentially help one in selecting the appropriate technology for a given bioanalytical application.

Phase sensitive interferometry for biosensing applications. METHODS IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY (CLIFTON, N.J.) 2009; 503:179-87.

Abstract
A simple yet highly sensitive implementation of an interferometric technique for a label-free molecular biosensing application is described. The intereferometric detection method is based on the phase-sensitive detection of spectral interference fringes. The change in optical path length due to binding of biomolecules on functionalized optically clear substrates can be quantified by detecting the change in the phase of the spectral fringes. The common path interferometeric design permits measurement of sub-monolayer binding of biomolecules to the sensor surfaces.

Abstract
Microarrays provide a powerful analytical tool for the simultaneous detection of multiple analytes in a single experiment. The specific affinity reaction of nucleic acids (hybridization) and antibodies towards antigens is the most common bioanalytical method for generating multiplexed quantitative results. Nucleic acid-based analysis is restricted to the detection of cells and viruses. Antibodies are more universal biomolecular receptors that selectively bind small molecules such as pesticides, small toxins, and pharmaceuticals and to biopolymers (e.g. toxins, allergens) and complex biological structures like bacterial cells and viruses. By producing an appropriate antibody, the corresponding antigenic analyte can be detected on a multiplexed immunoanalytical microarray. Food and water analysis along with clinical diagnostics constitute potential application fields for multiplexed analysis. Diverse fluorescence, chemiluminescence, electrochemical, and label-free microarray readout systems have been developed in the last decade. Some of them are constructed as flow-through microarrays by combination with a fluidic system. Microarrays have the potential to become widely accepted as a system for analytical applications, provided that robust and validated results on fully automated platforms are successfully generated. This review gives an overview of the current research on microarrays with the focus on automated systems and quantitative multiplexed applications.

Abstract
A large number of methods using direct detection with label-free systems are known. They compete with the well-introduced fluorescence-based methods. However, recent applications take advantage of label-free detection in protein-protein interactions, high-throughput screening, and high-content screening. These new applications require new strategies for biosensors. It becomes more and more obvious that neither the transduction principle nor the recognition elements for the biomolecular interaction process alone determine the quality of the biosensor. Accordingly, the biosensor system has to be considered as a whole. This chapter focuses on strategies to optimize the detection platform and the biomolecular recognition layer. It concentrates on direct detection methods, with special focus on optical transduction. Since even this restriction still leaves a large number of methods, only microrefractometric and microreflectometric methods using planar transducers have been selected for a detailed description and a listing of applications. However, since many review articles on the physical principles exist, the description is kept short. Other methods are just mentioned in brief and for comparison. The outlook and the applications demonstrate the future perspectives of direct optical detection in bioanalytics.

Abstract
The classical approach of high-content screening (HCS) is based on multiplexed, functional cell-based screening and combines several analytical technologies that have been used before separately to achieve a better level of automation (scale-up) and higher throughput. New HCS methods will help to overcome the bottlenecks, e.g. in the present development chain for lead structures for the pharmaceutical industry or during the identification and validation process of new biomarkers. In addition, there is a strong need in analytical and bioanalytical chemistry for functional high-content assays which can be provided by different hyphenated techniques. This review discusses the potential of a label-free optical biosensor based on reflectometric interference spectroscopy (RIfS) as a bridging technology for different HCS approaches. Technical requirements of RIfS are critically assessed by means of selected applications and compared to the performance characteristics of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) which is currently the leading technology in the area of label-free optical biosensors.

Abstract
Protein microarrays serve as measurement platforms for multianalytical applications. Small molecules, DNA, proteins, and cells are determined quantitatively. Amino-PEG surfaces can be a smart functional platform for protein microarrays with high signal-to-noise ratios. An effective step-by-step chemistry is developed for uniform presentation of terminal functional groups at each monolayer. Poly(ethelene glycol diamine) 2000 (DAPEG, 2000 g/mol) films were prepared onto silanized glass slides presenting epoxy groups. The uniformity of the grafted DAPEG monolayer is characterized by a chemiluminescence reaction using a chemiluminescence microarray reader with automated reagent supply and a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)/luminol reporter system. An intensity line plot on the horizontal axis was generated. The chemiluminescence intensities vary in a range of 2.6%. Antibodies against HRP as model system were immobilized on N-hydroxysuccinimide activated DAPEG layers by means of a microcontact roboter system. Chemiluminescence signals of bound HRP are detected at each spot with a standard deviation of 2.9%. The maximum antibody concentration that can be immobilized at the surface is determined with 1 mg/mL. Additives for an optimal spotting buffer are also studied. The use of the block-copolymer Pluronic F127 as antibody stabilizer is as well investigated as trehalose for the prevention of spot evaporation. The lowest detectable HRP concentration is 0.08 ng/mL determined on anti-HRP antibody microarrays. This study demonstrates how surfaces and analytical parameters for protein microarray applications can be characterized with a chemiluminescence readout system using a HRP reporter system.

Abstract
This study examined the ability of a real-time dual-color detection system to allow direct observations of the kinetics of temperature-dependent protein-protein interaction at a single-molecule level. The primary target protein was an Alexa Fluor 488-labeled actin conjugate, which had been pre-incubated with an unlabeled rabbit anti-actin antibody (IgG). The complementary fluorescent protein was Alexa Fluor 633-labeled goat anti-rabbit IgG antibody, which interacts with the rabbit anti-actin antibody (IgG) bound to the Alexa Fluor 488-labeled actin conjugate. The individual protein molecules labeled with different fluorescent dyes in solution were effectively focused, interacted with the other protein molecules at 500 aM, and detected directly in real-time using the dual-wavelength (lambda(ex)=488 and 635 nm) laser-induced fluorescence detection system. The kinetics of the protein-protein interactions were examined at different temperatures (12-32 degrees C). At concentrations in the aM range, the number of bound complex molecules through the protein-protein interaction decreased gradually with time at a given temperature, and increased with decreasing temperature at a set time. A high concentration (above 500 pM) of the protein sample caused aggregation and nonspecific binding of the protein molecules, even though the protein molecules were not an example of complementary binding. The results demonstrated that the real-time kinetics of a protein-protein interaction could be analyzed effectively at the single-molecule level without any time delay using the real-time dual-color detection system.

Abstract
Reflectometric interference spectroscopy (RIfS) is a label-free, time-resolved technique for detecting interactions of molecules immobilized on a surface with ligands in solution. Here we show that RIfS also permits the detection of the adhesion of tissue culture cells to a functionalized surface in a flow system. Interactions of T cells with other leukocytes or epithelial cells of blood vessels are crucial steps in the regulating immune response and inflammatory reactions. Jurkat T cell leukemia cells rapidly attached to a transducer functionalized with a monoclonal antibody directed against the T cell receptor (TCR)/CD3 complex, followed by activation-dependent cell spreading. RIfS curves were obtained for the Jurkat derivative JCaM 1.6 (which lacks the key signaling protein Lck), cells preincubated with cytochalasin D (an inhibitor of actin polymerization), and for surfaces functionalized with an antibody directed against the coreceptor CD28. These curves differed with respect to the maximum signal and the initial slope of the increase in optical thickness. The testing of chemical inhibitors, cell surface molecules and gene products relevant to a key event in T cell immunity illustrates the potential of label-free techniques for the analysis of activation-dependent cell-surface contacts.

Abstract
The availability of extensive genomic information and content has spawned an era of high-throughput screening that is generating large sets of functional genomic data. In particular, the need to understand the biochemical wiring within a cell has introduced novel approaches to map the intricate networks of biological interactions arising from the interactions of proteins. The current technologies for assaying protein interactions--yeast two-hybrid and immunoprecipitation with mass spectrometric detection--have met with considerable success. However, the parallel use of these approaches has identified only a small fraction of physiologically relevant interactions among proteins, neglecting all nonprotein interactions, such as with metabolites, lipids, DNA and small molecules. This highlights the need for further development of proteome scale technologies that enable the study of protein function. Here we discuss recent advances in high-throughput technologies for displaying proteins on functional protein microarrays and the real-time label-free detection of interactions using probes of the local index of refraction, carbon nanotubes and nanowires, or microelectromechanical systems cantilevers. The combination of these technologies will facilitate the large-scale study of protein interactions with proteins as well as with other biomolecules.

Abstract
Direct optical detection provides an excellent means to investigate interactions of molecules in biological systems. The dynamic equilibria inherent to these systems can be described in greater detail by recording the kinetics of a biomolecular interaction. Optical biosensors allow direct detection of interaction patterns without the need for labeling. An overview covering several commercially available biosensors is given, with a focus on instruments based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and reflectometric interference spectroscopy (RIFS). Potential assay formats and experimental design, appropriate controls, and calibration procedures, especially when handling low molecular weight substances, are discussed. The single steps of an interaction analysis combined with practical tips for evaluation, data processing, and interpretation of kinetic data are described in detail. In a practical example, a step-by-step procedure for the analysis of a low molecular weight compound interaction with serum protein, determined on a commercial SPR sensor, is presented.

Abstract
In the field of bio and chemosensors a large number of detection principles has been published within the last decade. These detection principles are based either on the observation of fluorescence-labelled systems or on direct optical detection in the heterogeneous phase. Direct optical detection can be measured by remission (absorption of reflected radiation, opt(r)odes), by measuring micro-refractivity, or measuring interference. In the last case either Mach-Zehnder interferometers or measurement of changes in the physical thickness of the layer (measuring micro-reflectivity) caused, e.g., by swelling effects in polymers (due to interaction with analytes) or in bioassays (due to affinity reactions) also play an important role. Here, an overview of methods of microrefractometric and microreflectometric principles is given and benefits and drawbacks of the various approaches are demonstrated using samples from the chemo and biosensor field. The quality of sensors does not just depend on transduction principles but on the total sensor system defined by this transduction, the sensitive layer, data acquisition electronics, and evaluation software. The intention of this article is, therefore, to demonstrate the essentials of the interaction of these parts within the system, and the focus is on optical sensing using planar transducers, because fibre optical sensors have been reviewed in this journal only recently. Lack of selectivity of chemosensors can be compensated either by the use of sensor arrays or by evaluating time-resolved measurements of analyte/sensitive layer interaction. In both cases chemometrics enables the quantification of analyte mixtures. These data-processing methods have also been successfully applied to antibody/antigen interactions even using cross-reactive antibodies. Because miniaturisation and parallelisation are essential approaches in recent years, some aspects and current trends, especially for bio-applications, will be discussed. Miniaturisation is especially well covered in the literature.
