METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTION OF A SELECTED TYPE OF MOLECULES IN A SAMPLE.

摘要

The present invention refers to a method for detecting molecules and/or substances within a sample based on the use of a microcantilever system. The method comprises the variation of a certain condition such as humidity so as the mechanical feature analysed varies with a characteristic pattern while the target molecule is bound to the detector. The invention also refers to the system used to carry out such method.
