A detailed description of MIP chip preparation procedures can be found elsewhere (Ertürk Bergdahl et al., 2019 (link)). Briefly, α-hemolysin (H9395, Sigma Aldrich) was dissolved in phosphate buffer (10 mM, pH 7.4) to a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml and immobilized onto a pre-treated glass surface, forming a protein (α-hemolysin) mold. A 1.3 µl aliquot of monomer solution [(N-2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate, 10 %, v/v, Sigma Aldrich, 245801), (Polyethylene glycol dimethacrylate, 50 %, v/v, Sigma Aldrich, 409510), MQ water (40 %, v/v) and (10 mM 1,1’-Azobis cyclohexanecarbonitrile, Sigma Aldrich, 380210)] was placed on the gold surface of a pre-treated Biacore sensor chip (SIA kit Au, Cytiva). Subsequently placed upon the protein mold, all components received 10 min of UV irradiation (Dymax, 400 W, 365 nm). A non-imprinted (NIP) chip was prepared using the same method but excluding the template protein.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
