Optical biosensors
Optical biosensors represent the most common type of biosensor. Here we provide a brief classification, a description of underlying principles of operation and their bioanalytical applications. The main focus is placed on the most widely used optical biosensors which are surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based biosensors including SPR imaging and localized SPR. In addition, other optical biosenso...
متن کاملUsing nano-mechanics to explore biological function
Using a range of atomic force microscope techniques we have explored biological function across a broad range of systems and length scales. To this end we have utilized imaging, force-extension curves, indentation, and in some cases, AFM combined with fluorescence microscopy. Our measurements have included model systems investigated at the submolecular level, for example, to understand interact...
متن کاملBiological receptors in biosensors.
Introduction Of the important analytes which need to be commonly assayed, the ‘trace metabolites’ constitute an important category, since under this heading are included drugs and their metabolites, steroids and hormones. These analytes are commonly present at nanomolar or lower levels in complex biological matrices such as serum and synovial fluid. They generally exhibit potent biological acti...
متن کاملOptical Biosensors : Fundamentals & Trends
