Products
Sierra Sensors is a global supplier of analytical biosensor instruments, assay consumables, and microfluidic technologies.
Biosensors allow researchers to monitor molecular interactions as they occur in real time without the need for detection labels.
From initial identification through to full characterization, label-free analysis provides critical information on a broad range of interaction parameters.
|
| Binding Specifity |
Which molecules bind to the target |
| Kinetic rates |
How fast are the interactions |
| Affinity constants |
How strong are the interactions |
| Concentration |
How much target is present and how much is active |
| Structural change |
Do interactions result in structural changes |
Beyond the unprecedented level of information generated, label-free analysis has a number of more fundamental benefits verses label-based analysis techniques:
| Fast results |
Complete analysis in minutes |
| Direct analysis |
Directly monitor the target binding event |
| Multistage analysis |
Monitor all steps of multi-molecular complex formation |
| Molecules in native state |
No interference from detection labels or labeling |
| Minimal sample preparation |
No labeling requirement, direct analysis of crude samples |
By integrating our proprietary microfluidic sample delivery and sensor mounting technologies with state of the art detection and automation, Sierra Sensors is providing simple to use, high performance, label-free analysis systems designed specifically for today’s fast paced research environments.
