Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biosensors, in particular to a mark-free optical sensing element on the end face of an optical fiber and a microfluidic integrated structure. Background technique [0002] Label-free bio-optical sensing technology has been widely used in biopharmaceutical process monitoring and protein research applications. In order to reduce the amount of biological samples used, reduce the diffusion distance of biomolecules, and multi-channel parallel detection, etc., it is often desirable to integrate sensing components into the channels of the microfluidic chip. At the same time, various other functions and sensing can be integrated on a chip through microfluidic technology. [0003] On the other hand, the combination of label-free bio-optical sensing technology and fiber-optic waveguide has also been paid attention to, which can make the optical path in the sensing system be realized by optical fiber, reduce the complexity a...
