Abstract

A novel method to measure the total serum protein concentration is described in this paper. The method is based on the principles of fibre-optic evanescent wave spectroscopy. The biosensor applies a fluorescent dye-immobilized porous glass coating on a multi-mode optical fibre. The evanescent wave's intensity at the fibre-optic core-cladding interface is used to monitor the protein-induced changes in the sensor element. The sensor offers a rapid, single-step method for quantifying protein concentrations without destroying the sample. This unique sensing method presents a sensitive and accurate platform for the quantification of protein.
