Why SPR in Education?
A benchmark technology in biochemical analysis
For all future professionals in the fields of biochemistry, biology or medicine, SPR is a reference technology for biochemical analysis.
Compared with other analytical techniques, such as ELISA, SPR enables real-time analysis, requires no labeling, and can be used to measure low concentrations, binding kinetics and molecular specificity, for a wide array of molecules, DNA or micro-organisms.
Concepts & reasoning
Handling an SPR measuring device is an opportunity to tackle many concepts in the fields of: physics, biochemistry and mathematics, while varying the difficulty according to need.
Example of associated concepts: fit of a measured curve with a theoretical model, biomolecular interactions, antibodies, adsorptions. Optical concepts: polarization wavelengths, resonance. And many other possibilities.
Mixed use for teaching and research
Thanks to its performance, the SPR in a teaching room will attract doctoral students and researchers who may occasionally need such a device for their research.
