Single-cell Biosensor for Measuring GPCR Ligand in Test Sample

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for measuring the presence and concentration of a GCPR ligand in a test sample including a biological or environmental sample. ; SOLUTION: Provided is the method for the detection of the GPCR ligand in the test sample by using a single cell biosensor expressing the GPCR. Preferably, the test sample is derived from a biological or environmental sample. The method may be used to detect the presence of a disease or to detect the presence of a harmful agent in the environment. The method includes an array of biosensors that detect ligands of various GPCRs. ; COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
