What does the public think about the DiaCHIP and systems based on synthetic biology? Would people want to use it? Check out the results of our survey.
-
Numerous complex processes take place during cell-free expression. Modeling the generation of proteins as well as their diffusion in our system helped us obtaining better results. Get more information here.

Abstract
In modern medicine, fast detection and differentiation of diseases is a crucial and fundamental task. Typical ELISA-based assays are time-consuming and expensive. We propose an advanced procedure for the simultaneous detection of various diseases in a fast and inexpensive manner, the DiaCHIP. Our approach is based on the interaction of antibodies with their respective antigens. Different antigens are immobilized on a protein array generated by cell-free protein expression, using the corresponding DNA array as a template. Placed in a microfluidic chamber, the protein array is incubated with a patient’s blood sample. The interaction between an antibody in the sample and the corresponding immobilized antigen results in a local change of the optical thickness of the surface. This change can be detected using a label-free and real-time measurement technology called iRIf (imaging Reflectometric Interference)which is based on a laser detecting the interference of reflecting light from our chip. Offering simultaneous screening for several diseases, our DiaCHIP has strong potential to improve future diagnostics.
