Integrated optical trap holds particles for on-chip analysis
Thursday, July 2, 2009 - 21:14
in Physics & Chemistry
A new type of optical particle trap can be used to manipulate bacteria, viruses and other particles on a chip as part of an integrated optofluidic platform. The optical trap is the latest innovation from researchers at the Jack Baskin School of Engineering at the University of California, Santa Cruz, who are developing new sensor technology for biomedical analysis and other applications...
