مستخلص: Label-free biosensing with silicon nanophotonic ring resonator sensors has proven to be an excellent sensing technique for achieving high throughput and high sensitivity, comparing favorably with other labeled and label-free sensing techniques. However, as in any biosensing platform, silicon nanophotonic ring resonator sensors require a fluidic component that allows the continuous delivery of the sample to the sensor surface. This is the big disadvantage of this platform since this type of microfluidic system is very much removed from the daily practice in, e.g., hospital labs, which still relies to a large degree on platforms like 96-well microtiter plates or reaction tubes. To address this major drawback, we propose the combination of a simple and lab-compatible reaction tube platform, with label-free nanophotonic biosensors with a special microfluidic system imbedded into the same chip, where the flow is through the chip rather than over the chip as in more traditional approaches. This shows that label-free nanophotonic ring resonators can be also used in the user-friendly platform like reaction tubes or well microtiter plates, conserving their excellent performance.
