چکیده
A simple, convenient and label-free fiber optic detection system based on the characteristic property, 'anomalous reflection (AR)' of gold was developed and preliminary experiments showed that the AR signals were sensitive enough to monitor protein-peptide interactions on solid surfaces.

Is the Baermann, an applicable method for detection of Strongyloides stercoralis?
Introduction: It is estimated that 100 - 300 million people in the world are infected with Strongyloides stercoralis. Although there are several laboratory diagnostic methods for detection of this parasite, there is still no gold standard diagnostic method. The need for an application test with high sensitivity and specificity is highly felt, especially in people with immune deficiency or organ...
متن کاملA first step towards practical single cell proteomics: a microfluidic antibody capture chip with TIRF detection.
We have developed a generic platform to undertake the analysis of protein copy number from single cells. The approach described here is 'all-optical' whereby single cells are manipulated into separate analysis chambers using an optical trap; single cells are lysed by a shock wave caused by laser-induced microcavitation, and the protein released from a single cell is measured by total internal r...
متن کاملOptimization of Sensitivity and Stability of Gold/Silver bi-Layer Thin Films Used in Surface Plasmon Resonance Chips
The aim of this study is experimental assay of sensitivity and stability of a bimetallic silver/gold SPR sensor chip. This chip utilizes the sensitivity of the silver and the stability of the gold. Moreover, the Silver layer (instead of usual Cr or Ti layer) was used as an adhesive intermediate layer between the Gold layer and the glass substrate. The optimization of the Gold/Silver thickness u...
متن کاملInteraction analysis of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) with its monoclonal antibody immobilized on a gold surface using Fourier transform infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (FT-IR RAS).
A monoclonal antibody for the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was immobilized on a gold chip surface covered by a self-assembled monolayer of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid. Upon the addition of CEA, a Fourier transform infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (FT-IR RAS) measurement showed an increased absorption at around 1500 - 1700 cm(-1), corresponding to its amide structures. Another additi...
