Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) is a phenomenon that occurs at the interface of media with different refractive indices. SPR detects refractive index change with high sensitivity. This optical-based real-time detection method delivers superior results across diverse categories of research, including life science, drug discovery, electrochemical analysis, food safety, environmental science, and chemical sensor development. When SPR is combined with other techniques such as electrochemistry or gas, it allows one to obtain new insight about these metal-solution or membrane-gas interfacial processes, enabling new applications and technology development in biosensor research.
