Abstract
The use of DNA as a functional biomaterial for optical device applications is becoming a fast-expanding technology. Various researchers are investigating salmon DNA as the primary ingredient in the design of optical waveguide devices. The interaction of the indicator dye molecule, Bromocresol Purple (BCP) with the unique homogeneous double helical structure of DNA for potential electro-optic and chemical sensing applications is reported.
