Description of the development:
()
Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is a unique technology of optical sensing, which tracks changes in the refractive index of the medium near the surface of the sensor. SPR can be used to monitor a wide range of physical and chemical processes that cause changes in the optical parameters and the geometry of the objects, and has recently become a widely used technology for a comfortable basic and applied research in different directions. The most widely used in the world's PPR laboratories for biochemical measurements.
