SPR Biosensor Data Processing and Analysis Software II

该奖项为一个旨在开发和传播用于光学生物传感器数据处理和分析的新型软件的项目提供了新的支持。该软件将与使用表面等离子体共振（SPR）的商业生物传感仪器一起使用，通常用于研究蛋白质结合反应。PI之前的工作导致了软件工具的开发，这些工具显著提高了SPR数据质量并减少了分析时间。该软件已通过一个网站提供，并举办了几次高级用户讲习班。该奖项支持的工作将导致该软件的进一步改进。除了在实验中的实用性外，该软件还将作为培训工具，教授新用户SPR数据分析的细节，并将帮助用户改进基于SPR的生物传感器实验的设计和执行。将利用一个改进的网站和更多的讲习班来传播有关新软件的信息。

This award provides renewed support of a project aimed at developing and disseminating novel software to be used in the processing and analysis of optical biosensor data. The software will be used with commercial biosensing instruments that employ surface plasmon resonance (SPR), typically to study protein binding reactions. Previous work of the PI has led to development of software tools that significantly improve SPR data quality and reduce analysis time. The software has been made available through a website, and several advanced user workshops have been held. The work supported by this award will lead to further improvement of the software. In addition to its utility in experiments, the software will serve as a training tool to teach new users the details of SPR data analysis, and will aid users in improving the design and execution of SPR-based biosensor experiments. An improved website and additional workshops will be used to disseminate information about the new software.
