Title:
LIQUID CRYSTAL BASED ANALYTE DETECTION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005012872
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the field of detection of viruses, and in particular to detection of viruses using a liquid crystal assay format. In the present invention, virus binding in a detection region is identified by changes in liquid crystal orientation caused by virus binding independent orientation caused by any topography associated with the detection region.
