Abstract
The interactions between a set of drugs, selected on the basis of reported human serum albumin (HSA) binding levels, and immobilized HSA were investigated using surface plasmon resonance technology. Major HSA binding sites were available after immobilization. The intensity of the signal obtained from the interaction of the drug with the HSA surface was correlated with the reported HSA binding level. Drugs were classified into groups corresponding to high, medium, or low HSA binding based on the injection of the drug at 80 μM concentration. A set of 10 drugs binding to α1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) was also investigated and correlated with reported AGP binding data. The throughput of the presented assay is 100 compounds/24 h, and the sample consumption is less than 100 μL (8 nmol).
