摘要:
Improved apparatus, compositions, and methods for carrying out interferometry-based assays for detecting analytes in a sample through the use of a precipitating substrate to enhance an interferometry binding signal, and kits useful for carrying out these assays. Methods comprise providing an optical assembly comprising an optical element with a transparent material and adapted for coupling to a light source via a fiber, a first reflective surface and a second reflecting surface having a first analyte-binding molecule and separated from said first surface by a distance, d, exposing said optical element to a sample comprising said analyte, a second analyte binding molecule, and a precipitating substrate; and detecting a change in thickness at said first reflective surface thereby detecting said analyte in said sample. Kits include reagents for derivatizing assay components along with packaging and instructions for use.
