发明名称 Liquid crystal based analyte detection
摘要 The present invention relates to the field of detection of viruses, and in particular to detection of viruses using a liquid crystal assay format. In the present invention, virus binding in a detection region is identified by changes in liquid crystal orientation caused by virus binding independent orientation caused by any topography associated with the detection region.

主权项 1. A method for detecting a biological entity containing a lipid membrane comprising: a) providing: i) a sample suspected of containing a biological entity containing a lipid membrane;ii) a detection device comprising a substrate comprising at least one detection region;iii) mesogens; b) contacting said detection region with said sample; c) contacting said sample with said mesogens, and d) detecting the presence of said biological entity containing a lipid membrane by observation of a change in said mesogens due to contact with said lipid membrane.
