title: [New approach in evaluating affinity of bivalent antibodies by the method of surface plasmon resonance. Theory].
abstract: Theoretical aspects of the affinity evaluation for the interaction between bivalent receptors (or antibodies) and corresponding ligands (or antigens) are considered. It was shown that the ligand presence in the solution at the stage when the receptor dissociation occurs leads to the increase of the affinity evaluation accuracy. We demonstrated that the analysis of the dissociative curve of the receptor from the chip is not necessary for affinity determination; the analysis of associative curve is sufficient for this purpose. We also suggested a new approach for evaluating the affinity of bivalent receptors (or antibodies) when these reagents are present in the studied solution and the correspondent ligand (or antigen) is immobilized on the chip.
