Photonic crystal biosensors detect protein-DNA interactions

Sunday, October 5, 2008 - 21:56 in Physics & Chemistry

Scientists at the University of Illinois have developed a new class of disposable, microplate-based optical biosensors capable of detecting protein-DNA interactions. Based on the properties of photonic crystals, the biosensors are suitable for the rapid identification of inhibitors of protein-nucleic acid and protein-protein interactions...
