Multiparameter analysis using tagged molecules

A system for multiparameter analysis comprising: (i) a substrate 10 including a main surface 12; (ii) at least one primary analyte bound to the main surface 12 of the substrate, the main surface being capable of accomodating a liquid 11 including at least one secondary analyte; and (iii) measuring a...

More Information
Summary:A system for multiparameter analysis comprising: (i) a substrate 10 including a main surface 12; (ii) at least one primary analyte bound to the main surface 12 of the substrate, the main surface being capable of accomodating a liquid 11 including at least one secondary analyte; and (iii) measuring apparatus for monitoring the surface 12. ```The system is distinguished in that: (iv) at least one support (microparticle or bead) is suspended in the liquid 11; (v) the support comprises an identification tag (e.g. a barcode, transponder, radio frequency identification chip (RFID)); (vi) at least one secondary analyte is attached to the support; and (vii) the measuring apparatus detects any reaction between the primary analyte and the secondary analyte based on the identification and final position of the support on the substrate 10.
