<nmz787> azonenberg: have you heard of these http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISFET
<Sync> nmz787: we are making them
<Sync> :)
<nmz787> Sync: are there commercial/available-from-boutique-companies ISFETs that can detect single molecule changes?
<Sync> no
<Sync> or rather not that I know of
<nmz787> so that must be why ion torrent seqeuncing still can't handle homopolymer stretches
<nmz787> I'm looking for some method of detecting single molecule changes to a growing strand of DNA
<Sync> ew
<Sync> :D
<nmz787> ahh. "The oblong design of the microchip contains millions of wells occupied by beads containing amplified copies of a single DNA strand. "..... from http://atp.ncifcrf.gov/genetics-and-genomics/laboratory-of-molecular-technology/lmt-technology-development/ion-torrent/
<Sync> pretty happy that I repaired the VG mbe again
<nmz787> I may have to seriously consider surface enhanced raman spectroscopy
<Sync> raman is nice
<Sync> but it is pretty amazing what shitty build quality you get when you buy vacuum equipment
<Sync> the vacuum side is usually very nice but the electronics on our evap are just .... sad
<nmz787> what's VG mde?
<nmz787> s/mde/mbe/
<nmz787> are you a microE by day?
<Sync> no, not really
<nmz787> so you've got that MBE in your own lab?
<Sync> haha I wish, I work at the university as a side job
<Sync> wee my small oven works :)
<nmz787> sounds like a nice side job!
<Sync> yeah it is pretty cool
<nmz787> so Helicos is about 1 DNA molecule per sq micron on the hybridization surface
