IMPORTANCE, AIMS AND POSSIBLE OUTCOME OF RESEARCH
In our project, we deal with improvement and adaptation of chiplaboratory
methods (based on specific recognition) which give us opportunity for quick
protein and cell component analysis of biological samples (blood, liquor, urine).
Nowadays many research teams work on biosensors which are reliable and
sensitive, able to provide quick results. At the same time they are cheap and can
be used without the assistance of doctors, in the patient’s home. At present the
most sensitive biosensors are based on marking (e.g. fluorescence, radioactive
or magnetic), by following the marking material, so a molecule can be detected
in the examined space or surface. Besides the advantages these methods
have also disadvantages. The chemical methods of marking make the examination
difficult, slow and expensive. The marking materials have an effect on the
marked molecule. A new marking-free technologies attract the scientists, mainly
the optical methods are becoming preferred. The integrated optical biosensors
represent an important direction in this area, scietists work on interferometrical
discipline. Interference-occurance-based sensors have a great benefit: they are
very sensitive to change of refraction index on their surface. The purpose of our
work is to develop a biosensor based integrated optical interferometer which
can be used for analitical purposes.
AIMS DURING HIS CAREER
I would like to become a good doctor and scientist. I hope I will be able to achieve
useful and applicable results in my research work as a creative, open thinking
and acknowledged specialist.
