title: The use of regenerable, affinity ligand-based surfaces for immunosensor applications.
abstract: The regeneration of antibody-binding surfaces is of major importance for re-usable sensor formats such as required for direct 'real-time' biosensing technologies and is often difficult to achieve. Antibodies commonly bind the antigen with high avidity and may themselves be sensitive to regeneration conditions. The interaction of polyclonal anti-chlorpyriphos antibody with an immobilised chlorpyriphos-ovalbumin (chlor-oval) conjugate and the interaction of soluble recombinant CD4 with covalently immobilised anti-CD4 IgG are presented in order to highlight these difficulties. Affinity-capture is suggested as an alternative format as it facilitates surface regeneration, directed immobilisation and the attainment of interaction progress curves that conform to the ideal pseudo-first-order kinetic interaction model. Protein A, protein G and polyclonal anti-mouse Fe-coated surfaces were used to observe the interaction of captured anti-GST monoclonal antibody with glutathione-s-transferase (GST). It was shown that a protein A affinity-capture surface produced ideal interaction progress curves while both protein G and polyclonal anti-mouse Fe resulted in systemic deviations.
