Abstract :
This study has developed sensitive gold nanoslit biosensing and imaging with surface plasmon (SP) effect for real-time analysis of biomolecular interactions. The main advantages of the proposed system include: 1) a minimum disturbance from buffer solution; 2) requires only a compact detection system; and 3) provides a practical kinetic study of biomolecular interactions.
