Abstract
An optical fiber biosensor is introduced herein, which could directly detect biological interaction such as immunoreactions of antigens and antibodies without destroy the biolayer. The test is based on the theory of multilayer-reflection principle in white-light interferometry. When immunoreactions occur, the reflected spectrum phase shifts. Immunoreactions could be detected by means of reflected spectrum phase shifting, or by biolayer thickness changing. Continuously detecting of thickness changing on a fractional nanometer scale with subsecond repetition times is allowed in this system. The detecting system has high sensitivity, high precision, high speed, cost effective and working on a high reliability. The bioprobe is easy integrated as a BlAcore. The system and the experimental results on the reaction of rabbit-IgG with anti-rabbit-IgG are described in this paper. A sandwich method was adopted in the experiments.
