Dear All, I have big Nonspecific binding issues on one compound plasma protein binding assay using ultrafiltration centrifugee devices. Recentely , I both detect the apical(C1,V1) and bottom(C2,V2)liquid concentration after spin, and also estimate the volume of both side.Can I use this equation to calculate the PB%=100*(C1V1-C2V1)/(C1V1+C2V2) if the recovery is acceptable(around 70%). any suggestion? Thanks !

Dear Sir,
I would rather suggest you to go for ultracentrifugation method or RED (rapid equillibrium device) method. If the nonspecific binding exceeds 5%, ultra filtration is not recommended for the determination of plasma protein binding.
Hope this will help

Please using the ultrafiltration leads to many examples of non-specific binding. My advice is to use the 96 well Harvard Plates, typical recovery's are above 95% without having to resort to any correction factors.

also we can use the HT Dialysis approach for the determination of the
plasma protein binding. RED inserts also serve the best purpose. But
before doing any plasma protein binding, its better we go for
checking the nonspecific binding to apparatus...
hope this help you.
Thanking you and regards,

Dear all,
We have been regularly using rapid equilibrium device (RED) from thermo for carrying out plasma protein binding assays and found the results pretty consistent. As already suggested by other group members, if you face problems of non specific binding, then ultra filtration is not the recommended method.
Thanks
