Surface plasmon resonance Imaging ushers in label free microarray analysis

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) reflectivity measurements are surface-sensitive, spectroscopic methods that can be used to characterize the thickness and/or index of refraction of ultrathin organic and biopolymer films at gold, silverĀ  surfaces.
The probes can be proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, sugars, membranes, or any other molecule. GWC Technologies is one such company [...]
