[h=3]Abstract[/h] This chapter introduces two formats using bio-layer interferometry competition assays to determine the solution K [SUB]D[/SUB] values of weak glycan-protein interactions. This approach overcomes the challenge of determining weak interactions while minimizing the amount of reagents required. Accurate solution K [SUB]D[/SUB] values aid in understanding the complex relationships between monomeric versus multimeric interactions and affinity versus avidity. The assays have been applied to a well-studied lectin (Erythrina crista-galli lectin) and influenza hemagglutinin (X-31). The solution K [SUB]D[/SUB] values determined from this approach are in good agreement with previous reported literature values from isothermal titration calorimetry and NMR. Additionally, this approach appears robust and precise.
