Research Category: Hazardous Waste/Remediation , Targeted Research

Objective:

The first objective of this investigation includes developing and optimizing a novel method for glass derivatization followed by antibody adsorption to the glass surface. This will allow us to develop a multiplexed ELISA-on-a-chip system for antigen analysis. The second objective is to adapt our novel ELISA system for pathogen analysis in local recreational waters. The system will have the potential to fulfill a demand for a faster and more cost effective means of testing for multiple pathogens and contaminants in environmental samples.
