| Research Abstract |
A method to determine subtype of influenza viruses by using surface plasmons localized in microscopic region on a flat metal surface was developed. In this method, refractive index variation arisen from interactions between viruses and their monoclonal antibodies was measured. Theoretical calculation revealed that measurement region had a size of ～180nm in radius, and could be occupied by ～7 viruses. The detection of influenza viruses with certain subtype was successfully demonstrated.
