  • Method for detecting analytes based on evanescent illumination and scatter-based detection of nanoparticle probe complexes
    Publication number: 20050250094
    Abstract: The invention provides methods of detecting one or more specific binding analytes, such as nucleic acids and proteins, in the presence of a neutral or anionic polysaccharide, through light scattering techniques, where a change in light scattering caused by the formation of nanoparticle label complexes within the penetration depth of the evanescent wave of a wave guide signals the presence of the analyte.
