Due to the remarkable properties of chalcogenide (Chg) glasses, Chg optical waveguides should play a significant role in the development of optical biosensors. This paper describes the fabrication and properties of chalcogenide fibres and planar waveguides. Using optical fibre transparent in the mid-infrared spectral range we have developed a biosensor that can collect information on whole metabolism alterations, rapidly and in situ. Thanks to this sensor it is possible to collect infrared spectra by remote spectroscopy, by simple contact with the sample. In this way, we tried to determine spectral modifications due, on the one hand, to cerebral metabolism alterations caused by a transient focal ischemia in the rat brain and, in the other hand, starvation... |

Toxic algal blooms are a public health issue and constitute a menace for coastal areas. The potentiality of a chalcogenide optical fibre biosensor, operating in the mid-infrared (MIR) spectral domain, is studied. In order to monitor blooms of toxic algae, more specifically Alexandrium minutum specie, two ways are explored: immuno-biosensing and DNA identification. |
