Method and device for detection of nucleic acid using total internal reflectance

An apparatus for detecting a target molecule in a specific binding assay using a fluorescence total internal reflection (TIR) element in a sealed static-volumetric reaction vessel is provided wherein the reaction vessel wall and TIR element surface are separated from one another by a distance which...
