    摘要: The invention provides an apparatus and method for detection of a target molecule. The apparatus includes a probe labeled with a transition metal-ligand complex that hybridizes with the target to form an initial complex, a metal ion for doping the initial complex and forming a final complex, and a potential means for providing a potential to the final complex to produce a detectable signal indicating the presence of the target after redox reaction. The method of the invention teaches the steps of hybridizing a probe with an attached label to the target to produce an initial complex, adding a metal ion to the initial complex to form a final complex and applying a potential to the final complex to produce a measurable signal.

    摘要: The invention includes a composition of matter and method that utilizes energy transfer between one or more donor and acceptor molecules. The composition of matter includes an encapsulation vesicle having a matrix, a surface coating of an organo-metallic complex and a transparent protection layer. The transparent protection layer is capable of modification by addition of biomolecules to the surface in order to bind other molecules. The proximity of the bound biomolecules to the protective layer allows for energy transfer from a donor molecule internal to the protection layer to an acceptor molecule outside the protection layer. The protection layer acts to diminish the effects of collisional quenching on the donor molecules caused by ubiquitous small molecules such as molecular oxygen. The application also teaches a method of making and applying the complexes to immunoassays.

    摘要: A device for analyzing simultaneously multiple analytes in a fluid of unknown composition. The device includes a plurality of sensors, a light source for providing light to shine on the sensors, light detectors, and a processor. The sensors are exposed to a sample of the fluid of unknown composition. The plurality of sensors includes groups of sensors, each group targeting a specific analyte and including one or more sensors that contain an analyte-specific chemical that interacts more specifically with one analyte than with some other analytes to be analyzed. Each sensor in each group has a different chemical interacting with the analyte to target it. The light source shines light on the sensors of the plurality of sensors to cause light interaction with the sensors. The differences in the sensors lead to differences in the light interaction. The light detectors detects the light interaction by the sensors. The processor analyzes the light interaction by the sensors to take into account interference in light interaction among the analytes, thereby determining the concentration of each of the analytes in the fluid.
