Assay electrode having immobilized lipid/protein layers, methods of making the same and methods of using the same for luminescence test measurements

摘要

Improved systems, system components, and methods for performing assays involving biological membranes and/or components thereof. Preferred luminescence test measurements are conducted using an assay module with integrated electrodes having biological membranes and/or components thereof immobilized thereon with a reader apparatus adapted to receive assay modules, induce luminescence, preferably electrode induced luminescence, in the wells or assay regions of the assay modules and measure the induced luminescence.
