UTILISATION D'UNE COUCHE DE SILICIUM AMORPHE ET PROCEDE D'ANALYSE

摘要

A method of detecting substances or reactions of substances in a sample, comprising: (i) providing a layer (CS) based on hydrogenated or unhydrogenated amorphous silicon with attached probes, (ii) bringing the layer (CS) in contact with the sample that may contain the substances that bind specifically to or reacts specifically with the probes, under appropriate conditions for the substances to bind to or react with the probes; (iii) optionally removing non-specifically bound or non-specifically reactive substances; and (iv) detecting the presence or amount of the specifically bound or reactive substances in the sample by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and/or fluorescence, is described.
