ALEXANDRIA, Va., Aug. 12 -- United States Patent no. 12,704,458, issued on Aug. 11, was assigned to ARIZONA BOARD OF REGENTS ON BEHALF OF ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY (Scottsdale, Ariz.).
"Critical angle reflection imaging for quantification of molecular interactions" was invented by Shaopeng Wang (Chandler, Ariz.), Runli Liang (Mesa, Ariz.) and Guangzhong Ma (Tempe, Ariz.).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "This disclosure describes systems and methods for critical angle reflection (CAR) imaging to quantify molecular binding kinetics on a glass surface in some embodiments. CAR is a label-free method that measures the reflectivity change near a critical angle in response to molecular binding induced r...
