Sensor Chip CM3

Biacore sensor chip with similar properties to Sensor Chip CM5, suited to large interaction partners and exploratory assay conditions.

• With shorter dextran matrix and similar charge density to explore alternative assay conditions.
• Use when the interaction partner in solution is very large.
• Improves sensitivity when monitoring certain interactions.
• Maintains sensitivity by keeping large particles as close as possible to the surface.
• Attach proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates or small molecules.
• Couple to carboxyl groups on the sensor surface via -NH2, -SH, -CHO, -OH or -COOH.

Matrix

The shorter dextran chains of the CM3 allows the interaction to take place closer to the surface which can improve sensitivity when working with large molecules, molecular complexes, viruses or whole cells.

Sensor chip formats for Biacore systems

Biacore sensor chips are available in two formats.

Series S sensor chips are for use with Biacore 1 series, Biacore 8 series, Biacore S200, Biacore T200, and Biacore 4000 SPR systems.

Sensor chips not designated with Series S are designed for Biacore X100 and Biacore C SPR systems.
