A novel configuration for bio-chemical sensors based on surface plasmon resonance

The use of SPR sensor devices often requires replaceable parts and disposable chips for easy, fast and on site detection analysis. In this framework, we propose a novel low cost SPR sensor platform, based on a replaceable chip and plastic optical fibers (POFs), for possible selective detection of an...

Description
Summary:The use of SPR sensor devices often requires replaceable parts and disposable chips for easy, fast and on site detection analysis. In this framework, we propose a novel low cost SPR sensor platform, based on a replaceable chip and plastic optical fibers (POFs), for possible selective detection of analytes in aqueous solutions. This new sensor platform allows for the easy replacement of the chip for the production of an engineered platform, by simplifying the measurement procedures, and the remote sensing by POFs. The preliminary experimental results have shown that the performances of this sensor are comparable to those obtained with the SPR-POF sensors realized by the authors.
