The Rapid Measurement of ABO Blood Type by Using SPR(Surface Prasmon Resonance) Sensor

The conventional measurement of ABO blood-types is visual inspection method based on the aggregation reaction with monoclonal antibody. But, this method takes a long time (one night) and requires the skilled analyzer to decide the blood-types for the saliva and bloodstain sample. Therefore, the rapid and sensitive measurement of ABO blood type has been required for the saliva and bloodstain on the clothes. Surface prasmon resonance (SPR) is an optical technique, which has been applied to biosensing. In this study, the rapid and sensitive measurement of ABO blood-types were investigated by using SPR sensing system.
