Zhang used surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy to measure aspects of the interaction such as the rate at which the two molecules bound together, the strength of their interaction, and the molecular structure of heparan sulfate required for a successful interaction. (sciencedaily.com)
The irradiation of gold nanorod colloids with a femtosecond laser can be tuned to induce controlled nanorod reshaping, yielding colloids with exceptionally narrow localized surface plasmon resonance bands. (science.sciencemag.org)
«With a technique called surface plasmon resonance, we can monitor binding interactions in real time,» Kim says. (sciencedaily.com)
