Conclusion
As a researcher, you've likely found yourself curious to
understand how a molecule of interest interacts with other
molecules. By measuring binding affinity, you can gain new
insights into those interactions and what they mean. Now
that you're informed about what binding affinity is and how to
measure it, you know how to identify, evaluate and purchase
the appropriate tools or technologies for your lab.
