“…WGMs enable real time detection of such interactions, with high sensitivity and time resolution [7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. However, the applications of WGMs as transducers are by far not only limited to biosensing but they can find broad applications as nanoparticle and virus analyzers [14][15][16][17], for measurements of the viscosity of a fluid [18], as refractive index sensors [19,20], monitors of unspecific protein adsorption, down to single proteins [21,22], as metal ion detectors [23], as thermometers [24], detectors of heavy water [25], for determining absolute absorption cross sections [26], tuning of WGMs on-chip [27,28], and for monitoring water adsorption [29,30], to name a few. Developing these varied applications provides a solid ground for improving this technology and cross-fertilizing its different implementations, which taken together have great importance in health care, environmental monitoring, and fundamental studies in the life sciences.…”
