K-One: unlocking new SPR possibilities.
Powered by K-One surface functionalization chemistry, we push the boundaries of SPR, enabling applications previously out of reach with conventional immobilization strategies. Our coating enhances SPR performance through precise ligand immobilization, ideal orientation, and complete protection of the surface. It ensures controlled surface density for accurate 1:1 Langmuir kinetics while minimizing non-specific binding and background noise.
We are a team of biosensor engineers and chemists with specialized mastery in SPR assay development.
At Kimialys, there is no single standardized protocol — each project requires its own assay design, tailored to the application and molecules at hand. From ligand immobilization strategy and optimization of K-One to instrument calibration, injection sequences and regeneration workflows, all parameters are carefully tuned to ensure assays that are robust, reproducible and adapted to complex biological systems.
Mastering complex systems
We enable even the most challenging SPR assays by customizing sensors and applying our K-One chemistry to fit your applications, molecules, and instruments.
Minimizing non-specific binding
With K‑One, the chip surface is optimally protected against non‑specific binding, ensuring minimal background noise and delivering consistently clean, reliable sensorgrams—even in complex samples.
Strong ligand attachment, high reproducibility
Ligands remain firmly attached while maintaining full activity on the surface, enabling repeated injection and regeneration cycles even under stringent washing conditions. This stability guarantees consistent results across complex samples such as plasma, serum, or supernatants.
Precise control of surface interactions
Our ability to adjust ligand density and control its homogeneous surface distribution allows us to work under affinity conditions by minimizing avidity effects and avoiding recapture. We can also work under avidity conditions when the project requires it.
Broad compatibility
Our K-One chips work with any gold-based biosensing platform, including Cytiva SPR, Horiba SPRi, Carterra HT-SPR and others. K-One surface chemistry enables direct ligand immobilization without intermediates or can integrate seamlessly with capture systems such as streptavidin, protein A/G, anti-FC and anti-Fab.

You’ll first connect with our sales team (Nicolas, Adrien or Cyril) to discuss your needs and project goals.
You’ll meet our technical team to dive deep into your application and challenges. Based on these discussions, we build a detailed work plan and list all required materials. Once we agree on scope, timing, and cost, we move straight to practical implementation.
One week before work begins, we hold a comprehensive kick-off meeting where all details are finalized and final questions are answered. This is the moment to meet the person in charge of the project at Kimialys, who will be your contact throughout the entire project. From there, you stay connected with our experimentalists at every step, keeping you fully informed on progress.
We deliver a comprehensive final report with all results and findings. Based on our initial agreement, you receive your optimized K-One biochips with buffers and detailed protocols — no chocolate included!
