Centre for Integrated Photonics
The Centre for Integrated Photonics
of Ipswich, UK, has won a £215,000 contract to develop a portable device that
will enable DNA fingerprinting at crime scenes, before contamination of evidence
occurs. The miniature optical detection and analysis system will eliminate delays
involved with submitting a sample to a lab. It also may become the foundation for
a point-of-care medical device. The DNA analzyer will likely integrate microfluidic
technology with a microwave heating element and a detection system consisting of
LED and photodiode components, lenses and thin-film filters.
