ONE-STEP BIOMOLECULAR IMMOBILISATION PROCEDURE AND PRODUCTS THEREOF

摘要

The invention relates to a method for covalent immobilisation of a biomolecule to a solid material and products arising therefrom, comprising providing a solid material with an activated surface, preferably by treatment with an oxidising agent, and subsequently contacting said material with a mixture of biomolecule to be immobilised and one or more silane components, preferably present in a pre-mixed binding solution. The immobilisation procedure is particularly useful for immunoassays, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), surface plasmon resonance immunoassays, microarrays or microfluidic assays.
