Understanding the factors affecting sensing efficiency in SPR
biosensing
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a disease where
immature white blood cells originated from the bone
marrow become cancerous, inducing proliferation in
the blood flow and subsequently to organs in addition
to prevent the proper function of other blood cells. One
of the main chemotherapeutic agents proven for its
efficacy for ALL is the E. coli L-asparaginase (EcAII) as a
biological therapeutic agent. The challenge with
undergoing such treatment is that the patient can
potentially develop silent inactivation of the biological
chemotherapeutic agent by generating antibodies to
neutralize EcAII and therefore reducing treatment
efficiency.
