Abstract
Conventional measurements of kinetic constants currently in use are performed at equilibrium and may require large volumes, especially at a low association rate constant kon. If the measurements are made out of equilibrium, the values obtained may be biased by dilution of the sample with the flow of the running buffer. In some applications, the available sample volume can be very critical and requires the development of tools to measure kinetic constants with low volumes. In this paper, by combining an experimental, numerical and modeling approach, we propose a surface plasmon resonance-based method that relies on an out-of-equilibrium measurement using the effect of dilution by flow to its advantage. This new method should have a significant impact in biochemistry and medical research.

Abstract
Mucin-5AC (MUC5AC) is a major secreted mucin in pathogenic airways. To determine its role in mucus-related airway disorders, Muc5ac-deficient (Muc5ac-/-) and wild-type (Muc5ac+/+) mice were compared in bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease, and ozone toxicity. Significantly greater inflammation and fibrosis by bleomycin were developed in Muc5ac-/- lungs compared to Muc5ac+/+ lungs. More severe mucous cell metaplasia in fibrotic Muc5ac-/- lungs coincided with bronchial Muc2, Muc4, and Muc5b overexpression. Airway RSV replication was higher in Muc5ac-/- than in Muc5ac+/+ during early infection. RSV-caused pulmonary epithelial death, bronchial smooth muscle thickening, and syncytia formation were more severe in Muc5ac-/- compared to Muc5ac+/+. Nasal septal damage and subepithelial mucoserous gland enrichment by RSV were greater in Muc5ac-/- than in Muc5ac+/+. Ozone exposure developed more severe nasal airway injury accompanying submucosal gland hyperplasia and pulmonary proliferation in Muc5ac-/- than in Muc5ac+/+. Ozone caused periodic acid-Schiff-positive secretion only in Muc5ac-/- nasal airways. Lung E-cadherin level was relatively lower in Muc5ac-/- than in Muc5ac+/+ basally and after bleomycin, RSV, and ozone exposure. Results indicate that MUC5AC is an essential mucosal component in acute phase airway injury protection. Subepithelial gland hyperplasia and adaptive increase of other epithelial mucins may compensate airway defense in Muc5ac-/- mice.

Abstract
We report the multistep synthesis and polymerisation of a novel aniline derivative with a pendant α-d-mannose substituent. The α-D-mannose functionality was successfully introduced before polymerisation via copper-catalysed azide alkyne click chemistry and the resulting monomer was polymerised using general oxidative polymerisation conditions, producing a water soluble mannosylated polyaniline. The polymer was characterised by several techniques and compared with standard polyaniline. The selective binding of the polymer to Concanavalin A (ConA) was successfully demonstrated by the precipitation of polymer–ConA aggregates. Potential applications of these novel polyaniline glycopolymers could include the development of electroactive biomaterials with the ability to bind mannose receptors, or as sensors for proteins or microbes.

Abstract
This paper reports on the impedimetric transduction of binding reaction between polymerized saccharides and target lectins. The controlled potential electro-oxidation of pyrrole-lactosyl and pyrrole-3'-sialyllactosyl at 0.95 V vs. Ag/AgCl, provides thin and reproducible poly(pyrrole-saccharide) films. The affinity binding of two lectins: Arachis hypogaea, (PNA) and Maackia amurensis (MAA) onto poly(pyrrole-lactosyl) and poly(pyrrole-3'-sialyllactosyl) electrodes, was demonstrated by cyclic voltammetry in presence of ruthenium hexamine and hydroquinone. In addition, rotating disk experiments were carried out to determine the permeability of both polypyrrole films and its evolution after incubating with lectin target. Finally, the possibility of using the poly(pyrrole-lactosyl) or poly(pyrrole-3'-siallyllactosyl) films for the impedimetric transduction of the lectin binding reaction, was investigated with hydroquinone (2 × 10(-3) mol L(-1)) as a redox probe in phosphate buffer. The resulting impedance spectra were interpreted and modeled as an equivalent circuit indicating that charge transfer resistance (R ct) and relaxation frequency (f°) parameters are sensitive to the lectin binding. R ct increases from 77 to 97 Ω cm(2) for PNA binding and from 93 to 131 Ω cm(2) for MAA binding. In parallel, f° decreases from 276 to 222 Hz for PNA binding and from 223 to 131 Hz for MAA binding. This evolution of both parameters reflects the steric hindrances generated by the immobilized lectins towards the permeation of the redox probe.

Abstract
Moist mucosal epithelial interfaces that are exposed to external environments are dominated by sugar epitopes, some of which (e.g., sialic acids) are involved in host defense. In this study, we determined the abundance and distribution of two sialic acids to assess differences in their availability to an exogenous probe in isolated mucins and mucous gels. We used atomic force microscopy to obtain force maps of human preocular mucous and purified ocular mucins by probing and locating the interactions between tip-tethered lectins Maackia amurensis and Sambucus nigra and their respective receptors, α-2,3 and α-2,6 N-acetylneuraminic (sialic) acids. The rupture force distributions were not affected by neighboring sugar-bearing molecules. Energy contours for both lectin-sugar bonds were fitted to a two-barrier model, suggesting a conformational change before dissociation. In contrast to data from purified mucin molecules, the preocular gels presented numerous large clusters (19,000 ± 4000 nm(2)) of α-2,6 sialic acids, but very few small clusters (2000 ± 500 nm(2)) of α-2,3 epitopes. This indicates that mucins, which are rich in α-2,3 sialic acids, are only partially exposed at the surface of the mucous gel. Microorganisms that recognize α-2,3 sialic acids will encounter only isolated ligands, and the adhesion of other microorganisms will be enhanced by large islands of neighboring α-2,6 sialic acids. We have unveiled an additional level of mucosal surface heterogeneity, specifically in the distribution of pro- and antiadhesive sialic acids that protect underlying epithelia from viruses and bacteria.

Abstract
We have used single-walled carbon nanotube field-effect transistor (NTFET) devices to probe the interactions between carbohydrates and their recognition proteins called lectins. These interactions are involved in a wide range of biological processes, such as cell-cell recognition, cell-matrix interaction as well as viral and bacterial infections. In our experiments, NTFETs were functionalized noncovalently with porphyrin-based glycoconjugates synthesized using "click" azide-alkyne chemistry, and change in electrical conductance was measured upon specific binding of two bacterial lectins that present different carbohydrate preference, namely PA-IL, PA-IIL from Pseudomonas aeruginosa and a plant lectin Concanavalin A. However, no significant change in the device characteristics was observed when the devices were exposed to other lectins with different specificity. Detection of PA-IL binding to galactosylated NTFETs was highly sensitive (2 nM) with a measured dissociation constant (K(d) = 6.8 μM) corresponding to literature data. Fluorescence microscopy, atomic force microscopy, UV-vis-NIR spectroscopy, and several control measurements confirmed the NTFET response to selective interactions between carbohydrates and lectins.

Abstract
Optical biosensor technology continues to be the method of choice for label-free, real-time interaction analysis. But when it comes to improving the quality of the biosensor literature, education should be fundamental. Of the 1413 articles published in 2008, less than 30% would pass the requirements for high-school chemistry. To teach by example, we spotlight 10 papers that illustrate how to implement the technology properly. Then we grade every paper published in 2008 on a scale from A to F and outline what features make a biosensor article fabulous, middling or abysmal. To help improve the quality of published data, we focus on a few experimental, analysis and presentation mistakes that are alarmingly common. With the literature as a guide, we want to ensure that no user is left behind.

Abstract
Multivalent carbohydrate ligands have been prepared by assembling alpha-cyclodextrin-based pseudo-rotaxanes through "click chemistry". The inclusion complex formed by a lactosyl-alpha-CD conjugate and a decane axle carrying a lactosyl stopper at one extremity and an azido group at the other end was dimerized by bis-propargyl spacers of different lengths to provide oligorotaxanes having adjustable threading ratios. For the first time, saccharidic ligands have been introduced on rotaxanes both as a biological recognition element and as a capping group. The supramolecular species have been isolated and characterized by mass spectrometry as well as by 1D and DOSY NMR experiments. Their ability to inhibit the binding of Arachis hypogaea agglutinin to asialofetuin, assayed by enzyme linked lectin assays (ELLA), was shown to be valency-dependent.
