Research abstract
The long term objective of the proposed research is to develop an in vitro diagnostic system based on a unique sample container whose design allows for optical fourier transform analysis. The advantages would be: a) no centrifuge required; b) portable, light weight; c) immediate results; d) safe, disposable sample container (no glass); e) single drop fluid volumes; f) zero gravity operation; g) low power consumption.
