Moxtek, Philips to Co-Develop Novel Array
Abstract:
Looking to extend its nanophotonics business into the life-sciences market, Moxtek is co-developing with Philips Research a new microarray platform that it intends to outlicense to an as-yet unidentified life sciences player.
The platform, called the wire-grid microarray chip, will offer high surface-specificity and suppression of background signals, and could provide improved quantitative detection of biomolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids.
The WGM works by illuminating a grid of metal nanowires with polarized excitation light, and detecting the fluorescence generated by target molecules bound to capture probes on the substrate between the nanowires.
