Watch now: Efficient data processing and decision-making across large data sets
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) has long been the gold standard for characterising molecular interactions in drug discovery, but throughput limitations have historically constrained its use in early-stage screening campaigns where large numbers of compounds or biologics candidates require rapid triage. The Carterra Vega changes that equation.
This webinar introduces the Vega – Carterra’s newest SPR platform engineered with a 48-channel array format, with two ligands per channel, that enables kinetic and affinity data to be collected across an entire compound library in a single multiplexed run. Current SPR platforms are limited to a maximum of eight channels. Building on Carterra’s legacy of array-based SPR innovation, the Vega substantially increases the throughput of high-quality binding data that can be generated relative to conventional sequential SPR methods.
The speaker is Daniel Bedinger, PhD, Senior Manager of Field Application Science at Carterra, where he leads the global application science team.
You will learn:
- The Carterra Vega Platform – how 48-channel array-based SPR enables simultaneous label-free binding characterisation, and how the analysis software supports efficient data processing and decision-making across large data sets.
- Small Molecule Screening – how parallel SPR addresses throughput limitations in fragment-based and lead compound screening, delivering kinetic and affinity data at a scale not previously achievable with label-free methods.
- Large Molecule Characterisation – how the Vega supports simultaneous antibody kinetics, affinity measurement, and epitope binning across large candidate panels without compromising data quality or sample consumption.
