    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of investigating the conformation of biomolecules or changes in the conformation of biomolecules as a result of an interaction, in which biomolecules from a sample of biomolecules are adhered discretely to the sensing surface of an acoustic wave sensor operating in a liquid, and a conformation parameter which is related to the conformation of the biomolecules from the said sample which are adhered discretely to the sensing surface, but substantially independent of the resulting change in mass loading of the sensing surface, is calculated from the resulting change in the output signals of the acoustic wave sensor. The conformation parameter may the acoustic ratio or a parameter which is directly related to the acoustic ratio. There is also disclosed a method of investigating changes in the conformation of biomolecules which are adhered discretely to the sensing surface of an acoustic wave sensor operating in a liquid, in response to an interaction with an agent, by calculating a conformation parameter which is related to the change in conformation of biomolecules adhered discretely to the sensing surface as a result of an interaction with the agent, but which is substantially independent of any resulting change in mass loading of the sensing surface.
