To use that with a detector that costs more than $1000 could get into a competition bind with this coming along for detecting
adsorbed molecules:

You didn't say at what price...

But, like Derek says, if you can get a spectrometer detector cost down under $200 it would go as a budget method.

The above linked new discovery detector, (surface -- but not plasmon resosnance), sounds like it
might sell for $1000 + $20 each supplies, or some kind of royalty
to make into lab-chips by 2017, so it could blow away your biz idea.
