This invention relates to methods and measuring instruments (or sensors) for use in biological, biochemical, and chemical testing. The invention particularly impacts methods, instruments, and the use of instruments that utilize surface plasma resonance (SPY – the oscillation of the plasma of free electrons which exits at a metal boundary) for detecting molecules and monitoring structural and electronic changes in molecules with ultra high resolution and ultra-high response.
