6. Fields of application

The fields of application for dynamic biochips are vast and varied. They range from pharmacology and medicine to defense, the environment and agri-food. .

In the field of medicine itself, the fields are vast, ranging from the study of DNA:DNA interactions to DNA:proteins. , proteins:proteins via antigens:antibodies or enzyme:substrate. The new system configuration for surface plasmon resonance imaging has made microarray systems increasingly suitable for the parallel analysis of a very large number of molecules, saving valuable time and products.

Generally speaking, the principle of biomolecule recognition used for DNA:DNA, DNA:protein, antibody:antigen interactions, etc. is based on the ability to differentiate between two or more signals from totally complementary...
