Bio-Layer Interferometry (BLI)
BLI is an optical technology that measures the changes in interference pattern between light waves.
Sartorius’s Octet® BLI platforms measure light interference originating from the tip of the biosensor surface where light wavelengths are made to reflect from two layers:
a biocompatible layer at the end of the biosensor surface and an internal reference layer.
