BackgroundResearchers at Eindhoven University of Technology are developing a new technology for continuous biomolecular sensing, called Biosensing by Particle Mobility (BPM). The technology is based on particles attached to a sensing surface that change their mobility by the binding of analyte molecules.
ContextThe Molecular Biosensing group (MBx, see
www.tue.nl/mbx) at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) studies molecular biosensing technologies with single-molecule resolution. The research leads to novel methods for molecular biosensing, insights into protein function within complex fluids, and novel routes into rapid testing and monitoring applications. The MBx group initiated and organizes the international competition on Sensors for Health (
www.sensus.org). Laboratories are shared with the Chemical Biology research group (
www.tue.nl/cb) and the Institute for Complex Molecular Systems (
www.tue.nl/icms).
