There is provided a method of separating free-astaxanthin selectively from green algae and, more particularly, to a method of separating free-astaxanthin selectively from, the method comprising: mixing a cell culture containingwith an alkanic solvent and stirring, thereby obtaining an alkanic solvent extract containing astaxanthin material including free-astaxanthin and astaxanthin ester (step 1); and mixing the alkanic solvent extract with an alcohol and stirring, thereby obtaining an alcoholic extract containing free-astaxanthin (step 2).

[object Object]

There is provided a polydiacetylene supramolecule comprising diacetylene molecules, capable of immobilizing a receptor molecule having a thiol group. Since the polydiacetylene supramolecule has a receptor immobilized thereon having a thiol group, for example, an antibody, and thus shows color transition when reacting with a sample, an antigen can be detected through specific color transition of the polydiacetylene when employing in a receptor-ligand reaction, for example, an antibody-antigen reaction.

Colorimetric sensor using polydiacetylene supramolecule

There is provided a method of detecting a pathogenic microorganism in real-time, using a modified flow-type surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor, comprising the steps of: i) performing, in a batch-type, an immune reaction of a pathogenic microorganism and an antibody thereto; ii) selectively separating the pathogenic microorganism bound with the antibody; and iii) binding the pathogenic microorganism bound with the antibody on a surface of a chip of a flow-type SPR sensor system in real-time.
