Towards a high-throughput label-free detection system combining localized-surface plasmon resonance and microfluidics.

This work reports an integrated platform combining localized-surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and microfluidic chips to carry out multiplexed and label-free protein analysis. We fabricated an optical bench to enable detection using only a laboratory UV-Vis spectrophotometer. This assay not only improves throughput, but also allows quantitative analysis.
