Abstract |
Optical properties of chemical substances are widely used at present for assays thereof in a variety of scientific disciplines. One of the measurement techniques applied in physical sciences, with a potential for novel applications in biology, is laser interferometry. This method enables to record the diffusion properties of chemical substances. Here we describe the novel application of laser interferometry in chitosan interactions with lipopolysaccharide by detection of colistin diffusion. The proposed model could be used in simple measurements of polymer interactions with endotoxins and/or biological active compounds, like antibiotics. |
