Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) Analysis Service | Drug Discovery
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is a highly sensitive analytical technique widely used in the study of biomolecular interactions. SPR works by monitoring surface plasmon resonance phenomena, providing real-time detection of the dynamics and affinity of molecular interactions. Due to its label-free and real-time monitoring capabilities, SPR has become an indispensable tool in biophysics, especially in drug discovery.
Figure 1. The Basic Principle of an SPR Measurement
In the drug discovery process, SPR is mainly used to study the interactions between drug candidates and target proteins. Through SPR analysis, researchers can obtain key parameters such as the affinity, association rate, and dissociation rate of drug molecules binding to their targets. These parameters are crucial for drug optimization and screening. In addition, SPR is also used to characterize the dynamics of biomolecular interactions, helping scientists understand the mechanisms of drug action and providing data support for drug development.
MtoZ Biolabs offers high-quality Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) Analysis Service to global clients. Leveraging our advanced SPR technology platform, we provide efficient and precise support for drug discovery, aiding in new drug development.

Service Advantages
1. Advanced Platform
MtoZ Biolabs relies on an advanced SPR analysis platform combined with the latest equipment and technology to provide high-precision, high-sensitivity interaction analysis services. Our platform has powerful real-time monitoring and data processing capabilities, allowing for accurate measurement of molecular binding dynamics, affinity, and association and dissociation rates, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the results.
2. Multi-Technology Platform Integration
MtoZ Biolabs uses a multi-technology platform to provide comprehensive and accurate interaction analysis. In addition to SPR analysis, we integrate other advanced technologies to ensure higher sensitivity and resolution. For example, when dealing with high-affinity, low-dissociation-rate interactions, we combine Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC) to measure the thermodynamic properties of the binding, and X-ray Crystallography (XRC) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) for high-resolution structural data. For difficult-to-crystallize complex protein complexes, Cryo-Electron Microscopy can also be used as an effective complement. Through the combined use of multiple technologies, MtoZ Biolabs tailors the most suitable analysis plan for each client, ensuring that every project receives the most accurate and comprehensive results.
