Key Points

  • The aim is to develop a sensor for real-time binding kinetic measurements while minimizing bulk effects.
  • Developed a dual-wavelength, multi-parametric interferometric reflectance imaging sensor (MP-IRIS)
  • Utilized real-time solution condition tracking to correct measurements.
  • Conducted DNA hybridization assays to validate accuracy under varying chip conditions.
  • Achieved reduction in bulk effect to 3 pg/mm² with a change of 10^{-3} RIU.
  • Improved repeatability and reduced quantification error in measurements.
  • Validated the performance of MP-IRIS in multiplexed binding measurements.

Abstract

We present a dual-wavelength, multi-parametric Interferometric Reflectance Imaging Sensor (MP-IRIS) for real-time, label free, multiplexed binding kinetic measurements without the “bulk-effect”. Our platform dynamically tracks the conditions of the solution and corrects in real time, demonstrating a reduction in bulk effect to 3 pg/mm0² with bulk refractive index change of 10^-3 RIU. By incorporating multi-wavelength data acquisition, we improve the repeatability and reduce quantification error due to variation in chip manufacturing and surface treatment. Proof-of-concept DNA hybridization assays validate accurate, multiplexed binding measurements under diverse chip conditions. MP-IRIS retains the high sensitivity of prior IRIS designs, lowering the overall complexity of the system and offering potential applications in small-molecule analysis.
