Method and system for interaction analysis
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method of determining at least one kinetic parameter for the interaction of an analyte in solution with an immobilized ligand from a data set comprising a plurality of different binding curves, each of which represents the progress of the interaction of the analyte with the ligand with time, which method comprises the steps of:
- a) performing at least one fit of the whole data set or subsets thereof to a predetermined kinetic model for the interaction;
b) based on the result of the fit or fits performed in step a), identifying and excluding binding curves of unacceptable quality;
c) performing a final fit to the remaining data set; and
d) obtaining therefrom the kinetic parameter or parameters.
