Funded Activity Summary

Control of Protein Attachment and its Optical Detection. Protein array technologies have applications in the rapid diagnosis of disease. Biosensors can detect traces of biohazards. Before widespread implementation of these technologies can occur however, a rapid, sensitive and convenient readout method for the control and readout of attachment of proteins to antibodies is needed. I will use electric fields, combined with array imaging at surface plasmon resonance to achieve this aim. This protein diagnostic array technology will enable accurate and rapid diagnosis of disease, generating savings on health costs and improving public health. Manufacture in Australia will bring further economic benefits.
