Abstract: A sensor device includes a sensor, which may include an acoustic wave resonator structure, having a surface to which analyte capture ligand is bound. The device also includes a crowding agent to reduce the ratio of binding of an analyte in a sample composition to the analyte capture ligand when the sample composition is flowed across the surface of the sensor.

Abstract: Methods include treating a portion of a sample composition to be tested for presence of an analyte by depleting or blocking the target analyte. The treated composition may be used to equilibrate an acoustic wave sensor prior to exposing the sensor to the untreated sample composition for analysis. By using the treated sample composition, in which the analyte is depleted or blocked, to equilibrate the sensor, the sensor may be equilibrated with a composition having a similar viscosity and non-specific binding characteristics to the untreated sample composition, which should result in improved accuracy when analyzing the analyte in the untreated sample composition.
