What are Some Common Nanotechnology-Based Detection Methods?
Several nanotechnology-based methods are utilized for biomolecule detection:
Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR): Utilizes the interaction of light with electrons on a metal surface to detect biomolecular interactions in real-time. Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET): Employs energy transfer between two light-sensitive molecules to detect molecular interactions. Electrochemical Sensors: Leverage electrochemical reactions to detect biomolecules with high sensitivity. Magnetic Nanoparticles: Use magnetic properties for the isolation and detection of target biomolecules.
