  • Publication number: 20240125707
    Abstract: A diffractometric sensor (1), comprises:—a substrate (3);—two interdigitated affinity gratings (2), a first affinity grating (20) comprising first unit cells (200) with affinity elements (201) and a second affinity grating (21) comprising second unit cells (210) with affinity elements (211), wherein the first unit cells (200) and second unit cells (210) are configured and arranged such that coherent light of a predetermined wavelength generated at a predetermined beam generation location (40) and diffracted by target molecules (204, 214)) bound to the affinity elements (201, 211) constructively interferes at a predetermined detection location (50) with an inverse phase, and wherein the first and second affinity gratings (20, 21) are balanced to generate a bias signal at the predetermined detection location (50) that corresponds to a difference (Am) in the scattering mass of the first and second affinity gratings (20, 21) which is in the range of 0.001 pg/mm2 to 30000 pg/mm2.

  • Publication number: 20090104717
    Abstract: A system for shortening incubation times on immunoassays employs energy that is applied to the assays. Energy is applied in careful gradations so that chemical bonds are not broken. If polyclonal antibodies, as opposed to monoclonal antibodies, are worked with, then because the bonds are stronger, cooling is employed in combination with the extra energy delivered.

  • Publication number: 20050000811
    Abstract: Electrophoretically enhanced methods are disclosed for carrying out binding and other reactions using pulsating and polarity reversing electric fields. The methods are exemplified by E3 ELISAs using free flow electrophoresis in multiwell plates and E3 Westerns using saturated matrices. The E3 methods are much faster than conventional methods and provide superior results. Reagents, buffers, devices and power supplied for carrying out E3 methods are disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20030148362
    Abstract: A microarray device for the analysis of biological samples is provided. The device includes a liquid permeable layer having a plurality of microregions, each including a plurality of probe-labeled microbeads embedded in the liquid permeable layer. The microbeads in a given microregion include a plurality of the same target probes on their surfaces. The target probes are capable of specifically binding to one or more particular target molecules (e.g., nucleic acid, polypeptide, small molecule antigen). The device typically has the capability of inducing a sample solution to move through the liquid permeable layer under the influence of an applied voltage. Kits which include the device and methods of simultaneously detecting a plurality of different target molecules in a sample solution are also provided.
