  • High resolution surface plasmon resonance instrument using a dove prism
    Patent number: 8982353
    Abstract: A surface plasmon resonance instrument and measuring method, in which a lens collimates light into a light beam, a prism propagates the collimated light beam at a single propagation angle and with internal reflection on a face of the prism, and an analyzer processes the collimated light beam from the prism. The face of the prism is configured to receive a surface plasmon resonance sensor and at least the first lens and the prism are aligned on a single optical axis.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 30, 2009
    Date of Patent: March 17, 2015
    Assignee: Valorisation-Recherche, Limited Partnership
    Inventors: Jean-François Masson, Olivier Bolduc
  • Heteropeptides useful for reducing nonspecific adsorption
    Patent number: 8680233
    Abstract: Reagents, kits, uses and methods useful for example for decreasing nonspecific adsorption of biomolecules at the surface of a solid support are disclosed. Such reagents and methods, which are based on short heteropeptides, may be used to decrease nonspecific adsorption in for example biosensing applications.
