Plataforma de sensores e método para a detecção em paralelo de uma pluralidade de analitos usando luminescência evanescentemente excitada

摘要

The invention relates to a sensor platform based on at least two planar, separate, inorganic dielectric waveguiding regions on a common substrate and to an apparatus for the parallel evanescent excitation and detection of the luminescence of identical or different analytes. The invention relates also to a sensor platform having the planar, separate, inorganic dielectric waveguiding regions and one or more organic phases immobilised thereon. A further subject of the invention is the use of the sensor platform in a luminescence detection method for quantitative affinity sensing and for the selective quantitative determination of luminescent constituents of optically opaque solutions.
