Claim 1design strategysupports2026Source 1DOI PubMed

Strategies to mitigate nonspecific binding include optimizing conjugation and orientation, increasing binding site accessibility and density through structural design, removing interfering species, and implementing signal-level strategies.

Claim 2knowledge gapsupports2026Source 1DOI PubMed

The origins, mechanisms, and implications of nonspecific binding remain insufficiently understood and are actively debated.

Nonspecific binding is a major contributor to poor biosensor selectivity and can cause false-positive or false-negative results.
