摘要:
An object of the present invention relates to detecting a target substance with high contrast. The invention relates to analysis of a target substance using a light-transmitting substrate and a metal for inducing plasmon resonance, and further using a low refractive index layer with an opening portion, which forms an interface with the substrate, and which has a lower refractive index than the substrate. Light emitted from a substrate side is totally reflected at the interface to irradiate the metal arranged in the opening portion with evanescent light. Light generated from the target substance by plasmon resonance of the evanescent light is detected. According to the invention, the radiation of evanescent light to a martial other than the target substance can be reduced, and thereby light emission from the martial other than the target substance, e.g., a molecule floating around the target substance, can be reduced.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a nucleic acid analysis device for analysis of nucleic acid in a sample through fluorometry, in which a localized surface plasmon is generated by light irradiation, and in which a nucleic acid probe or a nucleic acid synthase (605) for the analysis of the nucleic acid in the sample is disposed in a region of generation of the surface plasmon. The present invention allows the fluorescence intensifying effect of the surface plasmon to be produced efficiently and also enables the immobilization of a DNA probe or the nucleic acid synthase in a region on which the fluorescence intensifying effect is exerted, thus making it possible to carry out a measurement on the base elongation reaction without having to remove the unreacted substrate with the fluorescent molecule (102). The device comprises a flat supporting substrate (103),(301) and a metal structure having a vertex which protrudes through a thin film layer whereby a nucleic acid probe or synthase (307) is provided at the vertex.
