Optical biosensors

Article Abstract:

Optical biosensors are described based on the measurement of absorbance, reflectance or fluorescence emission occurring in the ultraviolet (UV), visible or near-infrared (NIR). Specificity is achieved for optical biosensors by using specific biorecognition elements such as enzymes, antibodies, oligonucleotides and whole cells and tissues.
