Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) is an extremely sensitive optical technique to detect the changes in refractive index occurring at the metal interface, which can monitor the processes in real time without labelling requirements (Lee et al., 2006; Kanda et al., 2004; Homola, 2003). Since 1989, our group have been focusing on SPR technology development. Several generations of SPR analytical platforms, including Reference SPR Analysis System, Electrochemical-SPR Analysis System, Portable SPR Analysis System, and HighThroughput, Multi-analyte Imaging SPR Analysis System, have been designed, fabricated and tested for various applications. SARS (Sever Acute Respiratory Syndrome) is a kind of serious infection, which caused tremendous loss in China at 2003. It is caused by the infection with SARS-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) (Rota et al, 2003) and early diagnosis of SARS is very important for better control of future SARS epidemics (Drosten et al, 2003). There have been several diagnostic methods currently used in hospital, but none of them can be used for early detection with low cost. For example, ELISA cannot detect antibodies that were produced in the infected patients within the first two-week’s infections.. In this chapter, a novel detection method of the SARS-CoV antigens was reported by using a home-developed Reference SPR Instrument, which can monitor reaction spots with control in a single flow cell. Monoclonal antibodies to SARS-CoV were immobilized only on the reaction spots via selective chemical modification, with no immobilization on the reference spots. Then a higher version of reference SPR analytical system: high-throughput, multianalyte imaging SPR (HMI-SPR) analytical system, was developed and tested successfully
